Maybe that is what I did last time, pull off the coolant temp switch to see if the engine fan would blow like mad... ill check out the electric fan.

later today I will be in the Brooklyn Battery tunnel, it is about twice as long as the Lincoln Tunnel. I don't think the temp will rise, I am pretty sure it is fixed now.

I think the AC has been weak, thought it just needed a little recharge, but maybe the fan is shot. hmmm.
