Hello. Our Avenger builds up a lot of heat in the engine compartment that I am not comfortable with. I keep thinking the heat might melt gas lines/filter and burn.
The temp is averaging 170-180 degrees which isn't bad. It just that the heat builds up high that bothers me. Perhaps I'm being overly cautious, unnessesarily worried..to my question:
Can I cut vent holes in the hood? How about holes in the firewall to add warmth to the driving area? Can I add another fan, perhaps mounted on the dash above the handle bar that plugs into the cigarrette lighter? Sounds fine but I value more experienced folks opinions than mine alone. Thanks.
