<VV> Reverse Rotation Cooling

[hallgrenn at aol.com]

That "desert conditions" caveat or a close facsimile is in water pumper operator's manuals too.  Even with a well maintained cooling system my son's Cobalt benefitted from turning off the AC and turning on the heater several times when he was driving through Arizona and New Mexico last July.  He even thanked me for the advice--after he saw lots of "modern" waterpumpers stranded on the shoulder with overheated engines.  A well maintained Corvair will do just fine in "desert conditions" (though I have been known to use a straight 30 or 40 weight oil in the hottest months).

YIKES Stricky! I never knew that was in there - Well...........I have to 
ay I don't agree. I think that a properly maintained Corvair engine 
ill handle "desert" conditions better than a water cooled.

 even the Technical Editor writes, "Under hot desert conditions, all
 Corvair engines lack adequate cooling in stock form."  Says so, right
 there in the Corvair bible written by the bible's editor,
