wrong Wrong WRONG! If your car is overheating
STOP!!! No ifs ands or buts. You don't know
WHY the car is overheating. It could be the
water pump, a void in the cooling system, a blown
hose, or plugged up radiator vanes. A blown
head gasket or a warped head are just not worth it.

Although I agree with Dave Swingle this exercise was not without 
merit. In an extreme case if the cooling fans were to fail at least 
the list now has the knowledge that you could sustain cooling if you 
can keep the foward motion of the car above 35-40 mph. This could be 
usefull in an emergency and could be a good "get home" tip.
