Hi Everyone,
I had the car out on the highway today and noticed the coolant temp was up around 220 F. It didn't go any higher then that and when I got the car back on regular roads the temp came down to just under 200 F. which is where it always runs in the city. The air temp today was 85 F. and when I parked the car the coolant temp was above 200 F. and I could spin the fan blades (with the engine off) rather easily. Do you think the cooling fan clutch is bad?
P.S. New Radiator and water pump, 180 degree stat.
Thanks Tim
