A 1977 240D
Had to head to Ames IA (an hour east) today for a training.
On the way back, I noticed that the 240D was running a bit hotter than
normal. Granted, this is the first day of the summer when the temps have
been in the mid-90s. By hot I mean that the gauge was about half way
between the 175 degree
I think it was a function of the hot weather. Normally, even with the AC on,
the temp sits just a hair above the 175 mark (I am guessing about 180/185).
