My girlfriend has a 1992 Buick Regal, and people have been telling her that she should not drive the car when the temperature is 25 to 30 degrees celcius during the day. What would be the maximum temperature you would want to drive your car in, and how long would it take to overheat?

If I'm correct (and remember how to chance from celsius to Fahrenheit) 25 degrees Celsius equals 77 degrees Fahrenheit, and 30C = 86F. The car will have no trouble in those temps. In fact, this type of car us used all around the world, even in deserts where the temps reach over 110F.

Honestly, if my math is correct, you have nothing to worry about.

Let me know if the temp conversion is correct and if you have other questions.
