Make sure the fan is running the right way and that it's on the right side
of the radiator.
Does the Xtreme use the Sierra rad fan and is it still fitted on the same
side of the rad ?
Putting a fan on the other side and swapping the wires over doesn't work
very well.
Sucking fans have different blade shapes to blowing fans.

Subject: [Quantum Owners] Re: Pinto - getting it to run cooler in an Xtreme
It goes above 110 !
I believe the issue is trying to get the heat out from beneath the
bonnet, but a bigger fan is definantly a good starting point.

Those sound like normal running temperatures for an engine.
The stat will probably be 88 or 92 degrees so the temperature will

at that normally.
Over 100 degrees isn't a problem, thats why cooling systems are
pressurised
so they can go over 100 degrees without the water boiling.
If it goes over 110 in traffic then maybe you need a bigger fan.
