Engine temp.


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know what a good engine coolant temp. should be? What's to low? I have an electric water pump, electric fans, and a 4 core alum. rad. Some times it seems like I'm running to cold and the comp. starts dumping fuel.I want to keep it as cool as possible but I want it to run good too. Thanks for any help!

with the 160 stat and e fans mine runs at about 178 all the time. i recently added evans npg+ coolant so we will see what that does, i expect nothign but maybe an increase since it has no water but it reduces hot spots and is said to be the shit. what are your ect's?

Sitting in traffic for an hour today on the way home w/o the ac running it stays between 190 - 205. That's with it being 95 out today :devil: This morning on the way to work it was 75 out and it ran about 170 - 180 running 90 mph all the way :D I have the fans set in about the middle of their adjustment no thermistat just a restriction in the line.
