Robby1870 Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 either engine not getting up to temp at normal speed (stuck open T-stat) or engine never cools off the first time it should open at ~195*F (stuck closed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 yeah.. Usually it will either work properly or not. Not really any "grey area". If it heats up and bubbles over, it's stuck. If the needle stays below 1/4 much of the time, it's stuck open. Of course there are other things that can cause overheating.
