I have been overheating ever since i went to that #^#%@& track. here is a couple pics, a friend of mine and another mech said they never seen one do that before. got another one installed in (a 195) and i looked over all the tubing again later and found a pin sized hole in one of my coolant tubes, it was spewing out when we pressurized it.
the temp went back down to normal, but on my way to see my gf (1 hr away) it seemed to be rising above halfway again when i got around 80 mph didnt want to push it so i slowed down why is it still doing that? is there something i overlooked?

The stock temp gauge isn't all that accurate.
It will tell you hot/cold/overheated. But not necessarily too warm. For example, the gauge in my Alltrac there is a roughly 30* range where the temp gauge wont' move at all. But part of your problem might be the FMIC. Do you still have your ST rad in there? Is a GT larger? That might help... -------------------- |
