I'm picking up a therm at Napa tonight and I'll be flushing the shit out of it tomorrow morning. Hopefully that'll cure it.



Phil, in October I'm gonna kick you in the shin and push you into the street.

I agree with S6, don't run it w/o a thermostat. 160 is the way to go.

My car wouldn't get any hotter just thrashing it - only when sitting in bumper to bumper traffic, especially with the A/C on. After putting in the Ramchargers fans, all was good, it hovered around 160-170 all the time.

The factory fan is shit in a hot climate.

I've flushed the bejeezus out of it, with a therm in there and without. I took out the therm and, while sitting in the driveway, the hangs out right around 160~170, but if I take it for a spin to the next street and throttle it, it soars up to around 210-ish. *But*, with the therm removed, the temps start coming right back down. I'm inclined to believe that the water pump, although apparently working, might not be working very well. And for the record, last night I threw my therm into a pot of water on the stove, turned the burner on high, and as soon as it opened up I stuck a meat thermometer in the water.....160 on the nose.
