Over heating 6V92

[Rob Robinson]

Jay last week or so I took the louver cover off and cleaned the radiator
with Gunk and lots of water. Used garden hose vice pressure washer. It
wasn't that dirty but some folks told me that it doesn't take much dust and
grime to affect temps. I hope a good cleaning is all you need.
