Clay the electric fan cools a 360 in high 80's weather easily. So I imagine a little V6 will be easily handled.

Vampire hoodlatch cure.

OK guys I took an old bicycle tube cut it into a piece 6 inches long and glued one end shut. Punched a hole side of an open end and put a piece of shoestring (white and long) through the hole. Then I slide my latch "condom" over the latch and tie it on leaving a chucnk of string hanging to remind me its on (saves the head and ruining the MKII ). So now you all owe me a beer <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> for saving you one more trip to the Emergency room for stitches. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" />


Maccka thanks for the idea. I will check that out next time I am under the hood. Yes, I do move my head in odd circles trying to avoid a fresh scrape. Of course it always when you get distracted. Seems like you could reverse the latch with a catch on the hood and the latch underneath.
