Greetings, all! I am a rookie user here, having just registered but admit to have browsed this site for a couple of months now. I find you all to be very informative and have gained good information and technical advice from you.
To my question: Recently had some maintenance done on my 95 LT1 6-speed coupe (78000 miles). This included water pump replacement along with new 180F thermostat, distributor shaft seal, front crankshaft seal and intake gaskets. Prior to this work, coolant temp ran 184-187F, oil temp ran 197-205F. This in steady highway cruise, air temp 80-95F.
Post this work temps now are: coolant 197-205F, oil as high as 221F.
Chevy dealer which did this work has no explanation and has offered no suggestions as to cause.
Can anybody out there point me in the right direction to solution of this mystery?
Thanks in advance, Bob
