My 1098 overheats on idle howeverit will go back down to normal temp once i start driving again. It doesnt take too long to overheat, 5 minutes atthe lights and it starts to creep up. Any suggestions for diagnosis? |

Apparently my fan is on backwards, althought there seen to be some debate about the proper direction. Can anyone clarify this? |
