Andy's recent thread about temp gauges has me wondering a bit.
I put new sensors in mine, both from Advance Auto. One in the water pump and one in the head. I think the one in the head is the one that feeds the PCM and the one in the water pump feeds the temp guage. I may have this reversed.
But since rebuilding the motor I can' seem to get my temps above 180 on a hotttt day and lately with the cooler temps here I can't get it much over 160 and I also have no heat.

I did install both a new radiator and a new ac condenser. Also had the fans programmed to come on earlier and installed a 160 thermostat. Is it possible the thermostat is stuck open?

I love the low coolant temps in the summer but damn its getting cold now.


Get a little IR/laser thermometer. $20 at Harbor Freight.
