I was watching a couple videos of turbo Mustangs on youtube and I noticed their gauges were sitting about 1/3 of the way. Mine sits just left of 1/2 point. My stock fans burned out so I had to hardwire a couple of fans in. I also have a 180 degree thermostat. I usually kick my fans on if I'm ever sitting for over a minute or so. It never gets below that 1/2 point once I start them after it's warmed up. Is my temperature right?
Yeah I was kind of wondering the same thing because mine sits just to the right of the half mark, it kind of scares me, but I just got the car 2 days ago.
Ya mine sits a little above half way...but I have under drive pulleys so it slows down the Water pump...kinda scary for the 105+ days we have been having here in OK.
Mine stay just to the left of 1/2 way. I also have a 180 thermo, but with stock fans on the timer or temp switch (however they work, don't really matter too much)
Yeah, i don't know why but i'm i have never seen my car run that hot, I guess my car is just special, ha . I don't even have a fan on it, but i am running a 170 thermostat and i don't have the A/C condenser on it either. It was 95 out the other day it and almost got to half when i was stuck in traffic. I doubt anything is wrong with the car, if your coolant looks like a dirty than a change and A FLUSH is a good idea.
