I too follow Bus Grease Monkey , so when I saw the temp thread I knew what triggered it . I think sensors / gauges would probably be a good idea , albeit one that requires some work . I have to believe that the water temp in the entire system was elevated , but it maybe not to the point of alarming the driver . I am going to review the coolant path .
In any case the affected bank of pistons were smoked . Looks like the head survived without cracking , a big plus . Not sure I would do one side only , but it's not my decision nor $$ .
Scott works hard , knows Detroit two strokes .
Just read Dave's post , now I want to install more sensors /gauges !
