Lately I've noticed I've been running kind of hot. I used to run around 83-85 but that has risen to 85-87. Then the yesterday day I was doing a little carving(not too hard really) and noticed I had shot up to 95 https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/ohmy.png It stayed there till I got on a straight away. Then dropped to 86 after a couple of minutes.
Is this normal? Can I stop or prevent it? I have an AST, Fluidyne and I just had the radiator flushed and put in about 3/4 bottle of wetter. The guy who had the car before me did some kind of mod with the fans where the wires run to a thermostat under the hood. |
maybe its just warmer outside? its only 2 degrees

is the radiator in the stock location, or do you have a FMIC?
|
if the thermostat is under the hood it just may be becaus it is spring afterall. . Just a thought
|
what??^^^

Yeah I thought about the change in weather but the temps were lower last summer. Besides it's not the cruising temps that worry me it was the **** jumping to 95c
Radiator is in the stock location. With stock intercooler. So if these temps are normal: a) Is there a way to bring them down? b) When should I start to worry? |
95c-----------------NO PROBLEM
I go to 100c sometimes on hard driving. Start to worry a little when that bad boy goes to 110c, but then its still ok, just start to watch it then |
Normally you run 83-85C???????? That must be nice....
I havent gotten that on any motor stock or all out done up |
mine is usually around 87c, almost no matter the driving. i was also a little freaked out about the temps one day when it rose to 98c for a few minutes, under LOW stress conditions! i got freaked out again when my friends told me water boils at like 100c or something (i dunno if they're right, im not a scientist, nor are they), but i dont care, car runs fine and temps dropped back to my normal range.
