Hey guy's I have a problem... when I drive in the city my engine temp is regular and then when I go faster on highways it nearly drops to cold it's been doing this ever since the weather changed can anyone tell me what this could be... this car is really pissing me off theres also a gas smell when I get out and I just got my filler pipe changed that was rusted.

QUOTE(blu94gt @ Oct 31, 2005 - 3:52 PM) thermostat is stuck open, mine is doing the same thing. as you go faster the engine is getting cooler because the thermostat isn't restricting the coolant flow [right][snapback]351035[/snapback][/right] and this is a bad thing ? -------------------- |
