Hey guys had my mid-80'ish argo out for it's 2nd run - I'm in love! But... I have a problem with it overheating. The 18HP V-twin B&S Vangaurd runs great but it just plain ran out of steam and the heat in the engine compartment was UNREAL. The plastic body was hot to touch, and I really didn't run it that hard; we just would got for quick runs then shut it off for a while then give it another test. Wondering if anyone else has had the problem and found some solutions. I was thinking of wrapping the manifold and exhaust through the engine compartment to prevent that heat from radiating into the area. Also I notice that there was an intake on the passenger side but all that remains is a bit of frayed flex line and a old gear clamp. Can you tell me what this intake set up was like and where it tied into? Is there any sense in trying to put a 12v fan on it to try and really get the air really changing in there?
