This runs the gauge.

5-90 posted a part number somewhere that you could get a switch to kick it on...

I forgot about that one. Renix efan is not computer controlled, the switch is on the drivers side of the radiator. It is not a sender, it is a switch, does nothing but turn the fan on and off.
Makes...

87-~96.5 use seperate senders for ecu and gauge.
One in the back of the head for the gauge, one in middle of the block under exhaust manifold (87-90) or thermostat neck (91+) for the ecu.

I always thought it was common knowledge that you DO NOT use tap water in a cooling system, until I got on the forums and read now many people do it...
Ive never used anything but distilled water...

Still around 205 iin 90° amb. :woot:
I'd like it cooler but its still way better than before.

Well, Ive learned two things.
1: You HAVE to pull the temperature sensor at the back of the head to get all the air out of the system. I was pulling the temp sensor in the thermostat housing to get...

Pretty sure my cooling system isnt building pressure. Ive tried two radiator caps. I dont lose any coolant, my overflow is always at the same level. I can squeeze the top hose shut with it at op temp...

Water pump didnt change anything. Old one looked kinda new.
180* tstat tomorrow.

With the gauge sticking straight up and reading 210 at idle the thermostat housing temp was 200* and rising.
I have a USMW fan clutch. Water pump I just bought is new, not reman. From Napa....

Mine runs 215-220 at ~80*amb.
During acceleration it will drop to 210, then go right back to ~215.
Rad/cap, thermostat, thermostat housing, fan clutch is new.
Elec fan doesnt seem to do much.
