hey
i went into the parts store to get a new thermostat and the one tha tthe guy gave me was a 192* t-stat, im sure this will be fine, just wondering if anyone had any huge problems with my t-stat opeining at 3* sooner than theirs...
Also - My engine seems to be running hot and i am more than a little concenred because i am driving to CA from NE on saturday. I just got full gauges about 1 month ago, so i was never able to see this before, but it seems to be only happening now that there is cold weather.... anyway -
My Cherokee runs at around 210* at 2500 RPM and about 230*-235* idle - then something happens and it will drop. I suspect at that point the T-stat is opening, so im guessing that i just have an old t-stat...
I also got my colant ssytem flushed recently, buy a piss poor shop that screwed mucho stuff up, so i could see them having something to do with this...
anyother ideas?
