Cooling System

The cooling system, including coolant flow to the engine oil cooler is now complete. As seems to be normal, this took much longer than anticipated.

Because of limited space, my choice of very large mufflers and the D2's dual radiators, the cooling system is quite complicated.  I counted 22 radiator clamps in the system!

I started the engine and let it idle for about 10 minutes.  As expected, all the hoses and both radiators heated up evenly.  No leaks! At least for now.

Tomorrow I'll install the half shafts that drive the rear wheels. Had planned to do this today but ran out of time.

Saturday was spent chasing AN plumbing fittings and half shaft bolts. Also attended a family party. Good weekend.
