It is super clean peering through it with light. It is a hydraulic fan. It turning smoothly and a lot of heat is being dispersed. Its not roaring but hard to tell what RPMs are going on. I took a infrared reading and my gauge is correct I have not changed the thermostats but since it idles down to a perfect 175 I don't want to change them just to be changing them. The oil in reservoir looks clean. I can't find any filters to be changed. It an older simpler unit. Its a 93 250 HP. I do enjoy driving her. The velvet suspension is something else. I have never experience as smooth of a ride so far comparing it to 2 other airbag type suspensions. The only thing I don't like is the up and down joy ride I sometimes get on uneven roads. Please Help so my dream ride can last more than 20 miles.

Completely off-topic, but you need new shocks to reduce that uncontrolled bouncing.
