if not frigid out, like in alaska, they block the rad with carboard, say 1/2
G16B, and 1996 intake man
ECT scans? 170to 230F? 40degrees swing. seems excessive to me. That 170 is bad, its too close to ecu , warmup/hot normal spec.
uses the thermostat that has a rubber ring that is 5mm thick (vert) and fits around the STAT and in to the 4mm ring in the base housing pit.
if not, it floats and goes quite crazy. it will surge.
my car runs 195 like a flat line.
yes, the dash gage is slow taking 5min to settle ,its a snail.
yes, im packing Xmas stuff in attic now.....and is cold. 17f this am.
make sure STAT is wax down, bleed front, (uphill) and rubber ring intact.
yours must look like stat on the right.
