  • running temp

    was just wondering what most of you guys had as your running temp. mine is usually around 150F (just under the 1/4 marker), and was wondering if this is right for everyday driving (obviously when i n traffic it goes up to around 210 or so, but then slowly back down, or i drive off, and it goes down by itself, for obvious reasons)

    thanks for the input

        Don't rely on the gauge to tell you the temp. Our temp gauges are notoriously inaccurate. ;)

                210 not long after I get on the freeway, or if I'm driving the car hard it will always hit 210. My front gfx piece probably has a lot to do with it because there's almost no air going under there anymore.

                  ok... lets keep this pg13 boys and girls... never the less, i have realized that i'm ok, my car runs at about 190, like every says it should, i just live in canada (america junior) (although i'm english, no offense to canadians, but i'm glad to be english), and here in canada we use stupid things like km/h and centigrade, just to alienate us from big brother (i used to live in the US... how i want to be in L.A. right now, t0tops off 360 days a year), but i did some conversions, and i run at 190 F, so its all good

                  thanks for the input... although ... well.. cassie and the (O(ks [img]smile.gif[/img]
