Re: IML: Fan concerns pt. 2 / '66

I've posted this before, but if you have NO coolant, the idiot gauge won't 
light.  This is what killed my '83.  The heater hose cut and all the coolant 
leaked out.  I didn't have any indication until the car started misbehaving. 
 Too late...   Just an FYI.  I'm sure if there were a gauge it would have 
showed some changes in temp.
