As a matter of interest, the top tank temperature, without temperature controlling means, should not increase more than .75°F per M.P.H. at car driving load on a level road, and also if the cooling system capacity is not great enough, the machine will not cool down in hilly country when the load is removed such as running down hill after a fast climb.

You no doubt appreciate as fully as we the difficulty in diagnosing troubles at long distance, however, we will be very pleased indeed at any time to assist you to the extent of our ability.

Yours very truly
