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.Kelly \'GhoSSt\' Rosato<br />1996 Impala SS, 385ci LT4, 52mm TB, Quad1 headers, !Cats, !EGR, !AIR, Hooker Catback, SLP TC, UK3, UL0, GM CD changer, Onstar®, Homelink® Remote, lots of Fleetwood, Denali & 9C1 Stuff.<br />1998 Z28 Convertable (stock at the moment)<br />1993 Caprice 9C1, 406ci MPFI, overhead console, 8-way Riviera seats, DVD, CD Changer, etc..<br />1977 Volvo w/ 3.8l V6 from a 1998 Firebird
