Belle River,
Well, I'm having an issue with the car getting too hot in stop and go traffic. Or if the car is left to idle too long. It over heated during an e-test (235) It only gets hot in stop and go traffic. If I'm out on the road it's fine. Temps hold steady at 195-200. In town it will get up to 220. I have both an aftermarket (autometer0 and stock temp sensor. Both read about the same. A/C has been removed and I'm running 1` stock fan and 1 slim fan (a/c position) both are set up to pull air through the rad (fluidyne) what else can I do to keep the temps down?
