I do have a problem. The engine heats up. I can't get it to hold a steady temp for very long with all the new stuff.
It creeps up. If I stop and idle it'll drop quickly.
When I pulled in at the gas station it was touching 230 degrees. I paid at the pump and got 7 gallons. When I restarted the engine, the temp dropped 25 degrees.
Everything was off while I was pumping fuel.
The engine heated up again as I hit the road.
Rolling down the road at 35 mph will slowly heat the engine to 230 according to the gauge. idling for a couple minutes will bring it right back down.

If the bottom of the radiator is that cool why is the engine heating up so rapidly? Something has to be killing the flow.


We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind.
