cooling was Stubborn oil temps! (help)



Hi folks;
     Check this stuff out www.evanscooling.com. It works for me. I have
Evans
NPG+  in my 1979 Scirocco, 1981 VW 1600 Turbo diesel pickup and my 1986
Audi  5000cs turbo.  It seems to work like they say and with no pressure in
the
 system think how long those old hoses will work. In the 1979 Scirocco I
have
 an 85 Audi 10 to 1 compression engine that originally had a knock sensor
 ignition. I am running it with a straight points distributor, mechanical
 advance only  ( no vacuum advance or retard) 32 degrees total and since the
 addition of the Evans NPG+ I am running it on regular gas. I have a 6 spd
 tranny and a Quaife in the Scirocco and hard nose it much of the time. It
 doesn't seem to ping ever and it's still alive.
