Guest Wanny Posted February 6, 2006 Report Posted February 6, 2006 Hi guys, I was wondering whats the normal running temperatue of a 2.3 gal. I noticed that for sometime now that my gal never gets out of the first solid white bit of the temperature gauge. I am sure that when i first got it it ran around the 'O' in NORM, would this indicate a fault temp sender or themostate ?? Would this have any effect on economy as it may think that it still needs choke due to cold running ! Cheers Ian :) Quote
Masked Marauder Posted February 7, 2006 Report Posted February 7, 2006 It certainly sounds like a fulty thermostat, and yes it will be using more fuel too. Quote
bigdaddy Posted February 7, 2006 Report Posted February 7, 2006 On my 2.3 the temp sits at the O in norm and when sitting in traffic jams etc it goes to almost on the R then the fans kick in and it goes back to the R,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Sounds like the thermostat is stuck open :) Quote
