Stock car doesn't need a 180 t stat it may run too cool with it actually . If blower is an idea then I'd do it . Like hoopty said check the ground . And also that the t stat isn't in backwards . That will cause it tooThe new Mustang i bought its a 92 mustang GT auto..when driving the temp goes up..but idiling it will go down i forgot what causes that?...I really dont like the factory gauge either...it goes a little higher then the middle i was told it has a 190 t-stat also...im thinking of putting in a new radiator and a 180 tstat...any thoughts?
First motor I ever bought. Intake was on it already . Used to get on the highway and run hot get off and cool . Sure enough someone said make sure the T stat isn't backward . And it wasReally backwards ? Is that possible...lol.that would cause it to heat up while driving but go down idling.?. yes I'm going to put a blower on it just a 5-6 psi kit..not looking to break any records..
If your radiator was clogged up, wouldn't it be hot all the time? I have a Champion 2-core radiator on mine. It was cheap and works really well.
The previous owner just before i got it...replaced the water pump...hoses..belt, t-stat...Radiator i dont think he did unless it was a used one out of another car doesnt look new...
From experience... You HAVE to burp the system. I really like the thermostat housing with the burp hole. I used an old temp Guage sending unit with the head cut off and hollowed out with a hose clamped to a bucket. Works burping the system super simple
