Glad you had some fun... its strange that it was running
150-160 with a 180 stat... stat should have closed
and keep the engine at 180... unless your stat starts
to open at 160 and is fully open at 180




Yeah, I thought it was odd, but happy it cooled. I really just expected it to be a head ache on the drive. Haha
