Newbie Issues...Engine Bay Cool Down Methods

[Gregory OConnor]

Run the fan on switch from the cockpit to over cool the engine prior
to shut down. The engine will rise in temp after shut down befor it
starts to cool at rest. I fear any attempt to reinsulate to correct
the problem, may prove a fire danger.

Being the shake down cruise, The heat may be more alarming then
actualy uncomfortable. I was concerned at first, now I defrost in the
bedroom closet.
