Hey Guys,
   My 87 1.8 GTI is running awfully hot.  With the AC
on I see oil temps in the 240 to 250+ range (using
Mobil1) and the Coolant gauge is way high too.  I
haven't gotton the red light to go on yet but when it
gets really hot I turn off the AC and drive it gently.
   Any thoughts on getting the temps down?  The car
has 214K miles on it.  I was thinking of putting an
external oil cooler in (any suggestions on sources)
and/or replacing the radiator.  I know the fan works.
We have had some extra hot weather lately but still
there should be a way to get i down.
Thanks and happy Independence day!
