Not Ranked
Mine did not have a problem overheating at normal driving speeds...runs at 165-185 degrees with the fan running in city traffic 90-100 degree days. However...get in a cruise (eg. Hot August Nights) where you idle for about 30-40 minutes and go about a mile and the temp soars to 230-240 degrees for the last few blocks...leaking fluid from the overflow tube. Get to normal driving speed and the temp comes back down to 165-185 in about 5-6 blocks. After a few minutes checked the fluid level and I lost about 16oz. of coolant. I use Red Line water wetter and water. I have since changed the fan to one that was bench tested at 3900+ cfm. The old one was about 2100 cfm. Hope this makes the difference...time and another cruise will tell.
