sorry, you're wrong again ryan... do you remember what you first learned in your 3rd grade english class? i highly doubt you do.

make sure your fans are working properly

Mine goes up to 95C all the time. Especially when I'm drivin slow, sittin in traffic or just parked. But the fans kick in at 95 and the temp start to drop.

I just did the fan switch mod and turn the fans on when I'm in traffic, at a red light or about to park. I like the keep the temps around 85C-90C.

all that IN HIGHSCHOOL, i am not taking science anymore due to my major, and learned it a LONG time ago

sorry, you're wrong again ryan... do you remember what you first learned in your 3rd grade english class? i highly doubt you do.

In High School, a long time ago. Your profile says you are 19 years old, 2 years is a long time? I was in 6th grade when I learned that, 13 years ago, and I still remember it.



Besides, what does that have to do with it? Not knowing the boiling point of water is on the same level as not being able to find the state you live in on a map of the US. You can locate Illinois on a map, can't you? You use water every day of your life. Do you know water's freezing point? No? Not surprised...



I think you need to spend a little less time on this forum, and a little more time studying. Good luck, you'll need it...

i spend all my time studying anyways... i do not need to know the actual point of boiling water. yeah i use water everyday, showers drinks etc, but how often do i have to set my stove to the actual boiling point? hmm unless it seems i can't afford to overheat water, i dont give two s*its what the actual point is.



sucks you got 6" of snow yesterday... must be a lot of sitting at home on your part...

I'm sorry to say this, but I have to agree with ryan on this one.

You learned you ABCs even earlier, does that mean you forgot your alphabets too? I'm not a math major but I still know what 2+2 is.



Anyhow, back on the topic.

If you are using typical ethylene-glycol base coolant with water mixture, you are going to see higher temperature fluctuations due to the lower boiling point (around 250F or 121.1C). The standard coolant/water mixture tend to be prone to localized boiling (when hitting hot spots), this will cause the coolant temperature to shoot up sharply.

I run NPG+ (None-aqueous Propylene Glycol) which has a boiling point of 300F+. The temperature is exteremly stable, varying less than +- 3degF.

seems you're STILL stuck in high school... getting off by attempting to pick on someone younger and seemingly more fortunate than you are...



by picking on others is NOT the way to solve your problems, seek help, as i get back to studying..
