Jeff,
I just returned from a week in the eastern sierra. Lots of long, slow (<10 mph), steep climbs and high trans temperatures. I read through your posts on temp measurements from several years ago. I also noticed you did a fan install on the stock cooler. Two questions:
After the fan install, did you note an increase in trans temps, while climbing at high speed? I am concerned about reduced airflow, over the cooler, due to the front mounted fan.
Did you collect any data on low speed trans temp drop, when the stock electric fan comes on? I am considering connecting the stock fan to a trans temp sensor to allow it to react to engine temp, AC, and trans temp.
Thanks for any help you can provide. I am several hours away from anywhere I can collect any meaningful data. Most of my time offroad is spent in the desert at higher speed.
I see that you live in ABQ. My parents live there too, I like it out there and try to get there often.
Regards,
Mike
