Now, around town is 80-85c and hits 90c quite easily and on the highway at 100 its 90c-95c. When idle the temps will drop to 80c in a few minutes too, so I know the fan is working. Plus I can hear it too, it locks in earlier since the new injectors.
I'm just a little concerned with the water temps when towing my camper up the coast. I think I'll be right though, the factory overheat limit is 118c from memory, I just have to watch the gauge more.
Yeah I wanna give them a shot for sure. Thing is after I come back on the 19th, I am going back to full time work so I hope they do Saturday tunes...
