Geez Lance,

maybe my Webra doesn't know it's a webra then. Mine will idle as long as I 
want in sunny FLA in the summer heat. And have flown it in "cold" weather also 
(45 deg) and it does fine; I change nothing to the cooling set-up of the 
engine. 

It's not north TX for sure but is close to south TX
