Re: engine temp 100 always
Is it the gauge or the actual engine temp? My gauge never moves above 100 either, but my engine temp is right around 165* ... I have a 160 t-stat though

My gauge does the same thing, never going above 100, but all of my gauges are messed up as well.

Re: engine temp 100 always
I think on my truck it's the sender... my gauge moves off the peg at about 180* ... the first time we ever ran the truck I thought it was normal when the gauge said 180* ... which turned out to be 236* on datamaster
... fan didn't come on, the turbo coolant return line exploded about 2 seconds later :roll:

Yeah, the first time I datalogged my truck, I noticed the same behavior. Now I actually start paying attention if the truck hits the first quarter mark. It went a needle width above it once and I figured there had to be something wrong. Sure enough, the coolant line from the manifold to the turbo was leaking like crazy. I had barely any coolant in the radiator. Fixed it and now it hovers a little above 100.
