I have a Mitsubishi Delica 2002 3L Petrol 4W Drive 7 seater van. I use it to tow a caravan and carry heavy SCUBA Diving Cylinders and equipment. It is low mileage. Bought 2nd hand as direct import to UK from Japan with 60,000 and probably done another 20,000.
It has a tendency to overheat when going up hill towing so I go very slowly. However then the fan also turns very slowly.
Does anybody have any suggestions for preventing the overheating. I am having the cooling system flushed and possibly having a switch installed in the cabin on a relay to manually turn on the air conditioning fan without the air conditioning being on to try to help cooling down the coolant.
Any other suggestions for diagnosing or remedying the problem would be appreciated.
Also trying to get manufacturers certificate of compliance to show that vehicle meets U.K. low emission standard to be able to continue to keep in London. Any help greatly appreciated.
