    Killing NHC 250s -what we have learned killing 3 of them.

    Video 2. Your downshift point is 1750 to 1700. Your upshift should be 2100 to 2175 Your letting it bog too much down even with 14.00s by the time the heat rises you don't have enough air flow to induct to cool it down. 1500rpms is too low and 1950/2000 is not high enough. Especially on a grade...

    His heat exchanger is causing most of his coolant heat issues especially running up hills or bogging it in high range. It doesnt take much. You want a cooler running engine go to a high flow electric water pump and all aluminum radiator plus a air to air transmission cooler before the...

    Killing NHC 250s -what we have learned killing 3 of them.

    My data is this. Green coolant isn't eating liners. He ran ELC, it eats rubber which compromised his Orings on the liners. which caused a leak. If you burn a truck up from putting your foot in it too much regardless of a pyrometer or not it is your own fault. Especially one that is not turned...

    Killing NHC 250s -what we have learned killing 3 of them.

    So here is a pic of what my green stuff looks likes at the bottom of my radiator. It tends to get greener than that with better lighting. but it has some left over from a black pepper stop leak a few months back. Not worried about it since I am going to do a radiator swap since I have had some...

    Killing NHC 250s -what we have learned killing 3 of them.

    You admitted you killed the first one due to not having a pyrometer which constitutes operator error. If you burn a motor up that is plain your fault. So thats 1. The guidelines may be out of date but they are simple and effective. And worked then. Why not now? I dont hear anyone else...

    Killing NHC 250s -what we have learned killing 3 of them.

    Ok and here comes my 2cents. Yes on the more air. That is the primary key to any engine to perform. As far as adding fuel to a NA engine in general. Unless you have experience driving a hot NA engine then you shouldn't do it. Especially if you have a thing for seeing your own black smoke. And...
