[C320-list] Over heating

[Mike Paris]

Dave,
I'm embarassed to admit that the problem was caused by my own stupity.  
I allowed coolant to leak when I pulled the water heater and didn't  
check the level properly before start up. Simply adding coolant solved  
the over-heating. However, It was a good lesson is what to do if the  
engine is suddenly lost whole on harbor.
