In a '65 bus with stock transaxle running 15" rims
with 205/70R15 tires 4,000 rpms is about 63 mph.

Hence the backing off. It's late and I'm not
going to go out and check my tires. They are slightly smaller than stock, but
not radically. I have a 412 ring and pinion tranny. So I don't know how fast
I
am going. I have a GPS that will tell me, but I lost a power cable and it
won't work without it.

Slow down Denis. Don't know how your gearing is set up
with your tires, But 4,000 rpms should be about 80+. That's too
fast in a bus.

My speedometer is not accurate, most aren't.
I barely use it on the road. There were many times on this trip home that
I looked down at the Speedo and it was all the way around and pushing on
the "0" post. My reaction is to look at the tach and oil temp, and sure
enough, it was at 220 (too hot) and over 4000 RPM. Tie to back off.
And I could watch my oil temp go down.

That the oil temp stays the same (low) regardless of how
fast you drive?

The trailer went home with the other
Arkansas folks. Murray made every mile
in spooky good shape. Wore
headphones all the way home. the bus didn't make
any strange and
worrifle noises. the oil temp went high when I pushed and
went
down as soon as I backed off.
What more can you
ask?
