Well it helps to keep the engine running at optimum temp, yes.  However, as for it being 40°c outside in the summertime, which climate do you live in? Iraq? ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

53°c...screw that for running anything in, let alone a '6'. My mod on the AC wiring is no longer functional on my car due to not having a Pug ECU anymore. However, the added advantage is I can program the ECU to switch the fans on at whatever temperature I like. It is current.y set at 85°c rather than the factory standard of 97°c. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

Thats pretty smart, saves pressing the button when you hit traffic. Out there though, they run loads of the old pug 505 estates with the dodgey colomn shifter. They seem okay to be fair. Would love to run a six there, on the good roads the roads are epic! Roundabouts there would be great fun!! ________________________________________ See the sheer power and might of the lesser known burrowing owl. |

Peugeot 505's now we're talking! They probably fair quite well out there, the size of the rad is about as big as a house. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |
