Thread: solution overheating

I am using a boxer 427. recently we had a new blower put on it and i cant regulate my heat at all!!! and now it is overheating and initiating the overheat protection and this is all in heat bypass mode!!! how do i cool it down???

we had the blower replaced several months ago and recently had the equipment moved onto our new water truck and serviced i know the heat exchanger was really dirty any way the old blower went bad shortly after i started here due to poor care. the bearings on the drive side were eaten up due to water getting into the breather plug on top. the water box float was not working and over filled letting water pool up on the blower!! any way i think my problem has to due with somethng else i am not a mechanic so i will have to take it to my dealer i guess!!!!

It doesn't take a mechanic to wipe down a machine at the end of the day or nite but 10 minutes. The other guy was right, a blower can last decades if properly looked after. And then again, some do not. Its been my experience the ones that 'fry' are usually due to neglect. Wipe down your machine routinely just for 10 minutes and watch your investment costs diminish dramatically!!

Rob has been demoted to "The Other Guy".........But he's right about taking care of your equipment better!

Sorry, to Mr. Rob Allen as "the other guy". I'm new at this type of communication. I meant no dis-respect.

I know......I've been looking for someone to pick on all day! Welcome to the forum!
