so 90'wagoneer 4.0 auto 242 3.5" RE-SF 35's gears
finally got a good tstat in there (stant superstat) and the jeep has finally been running at ~200 consistently now, it is VERY apparent when the tstat is open as is cools off very fast and very well....
PO had installed all new hoses, waterpump, radiator, overflow bottle, tstat housing and tstat(that failed)
today the temps in the springs were about the 5* mark, the jeep would not get warm, i ended up having to put some cardboard in front of the radiator to get it to warm up.
is this bad? or is it a good sign that the cooling system is working well? again on 32* and up weather the jeep has been running good temp, but at near 0* temps it just wont get warm....
thanks
