[QUOTE="Beerj, post: 718432, member: 10035"] Anyone ever mounted one up front on a rig with a rear mounted radiator? Idling level or facing downhill mine does fine. However, facing uphill at idle, the temps climb. Raising the rpm's brings the temp back down but I'm not 100% sure yet if that trend will stay of if it will eventually stop cooling down and start heating up again over time. Additionally, I'm not sure what will happen giving it a workout facing uphill. Logic tells me it must be building steam and is unable to burp when the radiator is the lowest point however, I haven't noticed any burping after returning to level or nose down. This got me wondering if running the steam vent line into a catch can up near the engine would prevent any steam pockets from clogging up the coolant hose. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
