Thread: walhalla 351

I've done quite a bit of tinkering with heat supression in my old Citroens. I found this stuff was cheap, yet effective. I'm not sure how you would go about applying around a battery box though.

EZ Cool Automotive Insulation heat barrier and noise reduction for cars, trucks, classic cars, street rods and much more

Yes it's my old Citroen that he's linked on his website. I'm going to line the trannie tunnel of my old Range Rover classic with it if I ever pull the carpets out for any reason. I've just finished lining the firewall and front floors of an old Citroen DS with it (they suffer horendous heat soak) .... even without the windscreen in or bonnet on it seems massively cooler and much quieter.

This is a useful thread. Note what Barra1 did on his Defender using insulation from Clark Rubber.

HELP! Kids are cooking - need better aircon

G'day Walhalla,
Welcome to the forum. I'm assuming its you that I met a few months ago at the park there. We had a small discussion about you trip etc (whilst we were stopped having lunch). Good to see you here. If you get the chance, I'm sure there's more than just me who'd love to see picks and hear your stories from your OS trip

Have you checked with either the Dealer or a Battery place to see if the battery/alternator are ok. Seems strange that it should almost cooking. I wouldn't have thought it was even really that hot to start with (?).
