Hmmm...
Seems like the last one I replaced had the curved vanes on it (the new one I mean). I do have another new one on the shelf and will check it tomorrow to see what it looks like.
What is the brand of your new one?
The Sonett's do tend to have overheating problems. I've solved mine with having the radiators boiled and rodded out. That seems to cure the problem, although I don't live in a hot climate. Larger radiators and electric fans (all from the Saab 900) are fitted by those that still have problems. You can also get a 160 degree thermostat that will give you a bit more margin. Obviously, if your radiator can't keep up, the system will still overheat given enough time.
