How hot is the engine running?  It it's pegged, it's the fan or the fan relay or the thermostat.  If the engine isn't hot, well, then it's a huge mixture problem. Whatever you did to the 88 after you did it to the 93 is the problem. Robert P. Wichert P.Eng +1 916 966 9060 FAX +1 916 966 9068 ========================================================

Mark. If you want to save money then staying in Boston is out. You will also be tired from swimming, you need to catch those fresh lobsters after all. I am about 2.5 hours west of Boston and directly in line with the nicest route out to PA. KLRs are always welcome here! I have a nice Air matress, not for camping since it weighs a lot, in the finished basement that you are welcome to use. There is a full bath too so you can wash off the salt water. It will be a nice relief from the reasonably priced foam pad before you set off though PA and Ohio. You really need to be rested before you cross those two states, you will understand when you get there. Let me know when your heading out since I have a Disney trip in April and a week on the cape in June. As long as I am here you get at least one comfy night's sleep. If I play it right I might even get my wife to cook something worthy before you head out. She is very good at that. Sincerely, Chris who camps on reasonably priced camp pads. And I am glad that wont make rats fly out of your back side. I really dont need to see that!
