  • Average Scantool Temp Reading?

    My AutoXray is saying that the temp at the CTS is about 210 with a stock thermostat. But the upper radiator hose and radiator itself feel warm but not blazing hot, so I'm pretty sure that the 4cyl radiator in the Volvo is doing its job pretty good. Has anyone monitored their temp via the PCM and the coolant temp sensor (not a temp gauge) and what does the temp seem to average in a F-body?

      Its a mixture. It can go as high as 218 at idle and as low as 204 while moving. I might have a lazy thermostat tho. I know for a fact my water pump is noisy, so its probably dying.
