I like the exhaust pipe position :D

If I'm right, the radiators are in the back, next the engine. is that correct?

I'm don't think this is very good. How is the hot air getting out? It is better to put the radiator at the front, or underneath as other people here in Australia have.

do you have a scoop for the underneath radiator? do you have fans on either radiator? if you have fans maybe check which way they are blowing, but i think if you are only having trouble outside the city then you have no shrouds or your shrouds are not good so when you get to higher speeds the air oges past the radiators rather then through them.

Yo creio que el mejor es que Ud. ponga aqui las fotos de los radiadors, mostrando la posicion e los ductos (si hay). Algunas personas aqui (bien como 'Helbus') ya resolveram este problema com motores 'Subaru' e radiadores abaixo del Kombi, inclusive operando em temperaturas encima de 40 grados, sin problema. Su ingles es mejor que mi espanhol!

for helbus
sabes hablar español?
i don´t know for what is that
header tank I got made up which will hold about 2.5 litres of water also and eliminate water locks. It looks like a spaceship and is the size of a 2litre bottle of softdrink but fatter.
do you think that for my engine i need only one pump?the ford pump
i think that my problem is that the underneath radiator have a fan under radiator nor over,i want to say that i have the fan down and may will have to be upper the radiator
i love your bus helbus,very nice

The header tank is to give the top position for filling water and to allow the water in the system to 'burp'

The one pump should be enough. If you feel it is not enough, there are electric waterpumps available.

The radiator for my bus is the size suitable for 3.0 litre motor.

Pressure is important. The pressure in the system stops boiling of water until high temperature. The vaso de expansion is expansion bottle. When the system is hot the water goes out. When it is cool the water goes back into system. This is important too.

The metal shroud around the radiator is made by sheet metal fabrication. The fan up or down has some small differences. The important feature is fan drawing cool air. The fan must not draw air in rotation from the same place the air is pushed into. You do not want the air to be warm already before it goes through the radiator. In a circuit is not good.

We need to make sure we understand what your problem is.

When you say your gear shift is broken, I think you mean your transmission (or gear box) is broken. The "gear shift" is the part used to change gears. The gear box is the part that the engine bolts to, and has the gears inside.

So you have a 1600 type 2 gear box at the moment. It will be geared very low. So at 100kph your RPM (engine speed) will be quite high. This is good if your engine does not have much power.

Your ford 2000cc engine should have enough power to go up hills. If it can only go quite slow, then perhaps you need a new engine.

A 2000cc type 2 gear box has taller gearing. So at 100kph your RPM will be lower. This is better for highway driving, but you need more power to use the taller gearing. You will have more problems on hills if you don't have enough power from the engine.

I'm not sure exactly what engine that is, but I think it should have as much power as a 2L VW motor. It should go up hills, unless your car is really heavy.

Are you sure your Ford engine is actually 2000cc?
