Did you ever find out what is causing this. I have a 2003 2925 and it started running hot this summer. Cannot figure out the cause.

Did either of you figure this out? My '03 2925 is running hot now for a couple of years. Now it is shutting down when it gets hot and will not start until it cools for about an hour. I think this new problem might be the ignition modules. I did check for vacum in the fuel tank and it still would not start after opening the cap.

Mouse nest in the cooling fins under the engine cowling?
