Just trying to help Petr.
Is the handle for your snail tool original? If so, how long is it? I have the snail but wondered about the standard handle length.

Well, so now is time for some serious improvement of the cooling system. Have properly sized new cooler and also will switch back to the mechanical fan (not genuine, but size is OK).

As one wise man on the forum had advised I finally drilled small holes in the lowest part of the exhaust system.
Got one shot of black water out of it, so this improvement definitely works ![]() Thanks Michael ![]()

Wow! Well done. How it works? Better efficiency? What kind of muffers you have installed in your Carrier?

Had to make a small modification on the side covers to take the bigger radiator, now will focus on the lower engine covers.
