I think at around 00:46 I can see the left Plastique Zip Tie Get Drawn INTO & Towards the Aux Cooling Apparatus when the moteur is Rev'ed up....or perhaps "not".
Cheers for pointing out the Side Intake Panel, I am think that I will have to visit a Bus Company for some ideas & oversight.
I like the fact that the old Bus started up & only smoked a bit & then cleared up.
Live Free, Smoke only on Start-up, or Antique Busses don't Die, they start & RUN!
Hi, Does the engine Draw IN Aire from the back for Radiator cooling or does it blow it OUT???
I am asking because I put a water cooled motor in my 1978 VW Westfalia & I am having opposing positions as to how to Draw aire to Cool the Radiator (Which is mounted in the back like on this bus in your vid). Any Help is much appreciated.!
@Casmige the fan always blows towards the radiator (in this bus' case, towards the back of the bus) this way if its idling in traffic or something the radiator still has some air moving over it, this motor, as im sure all or almost all, are cooled via liquid (coolant) otherwise the radiator really wouldnt be doing any good if it was cooled just by a fan
@NHComputerGeek Hi!! Cheers for the Reply, My English is not so good I am thinking. What I mean to ask is this:- For Engine Cooling, Clearly a Radiator is seen in back with an Aux Transmission Oil Cooler that is affixed to it also. Does the Engine Driven Fan Pull Aire IN From the Back/Outside into Engine Bay & exhaust it out the bottom or does it Blow aire out back THROUGH radiator from inside/Underside Aire Stream under Bus [front to back] to accomplish Cooling aire flow over the Radiator.
@Casmige I believe it blows it back through the radiator... if you watch me walk from the front to the back, there are 2 large air scoops on the sides, the passenger side (one i walked on) has nothing in the way, just goes right into the engine compartment, the drivers side has the Refrigeration / A/C radiator, which you can see from inside the compartment
@Kitfugl lol, its not my bus either, lol, that's who it belongs to is the guy sitting in the drivers seat, but hes my best friend... we're hoping to fix it up sometime, it is legal to drive, so long as you have a CDL too for the air brakes, but runs great otherwise
@Kitfugl lol if anyone's getting it, its me XD besides, we're gonna work together to fix it up and paint it and such, maybe go camping in it sometime, ill post a vid each time we go do something to it though
Wow your friend really stomps the gas pedal!
