Alright another topic that has been discussed quite a bit but again I want some fresh advice. My 97 with 34k here in Va runs past half on the temp gauge all the time. If at idle at stoplights on these hot days it is running at 3/4. I can't stand this. I have hooked up the scan tool and rode the car around and the hottest it has seen (at 3/4) is about 205 then the fan kicks in. With the a/c on it only runs between half and 3/4(fan is constant). At normal cruising speeds down the highway w/ ac it runs about 188, hotter if a/c is not on. Is the car just going to run that hot and I shouldn't worry about it or is this abnormal? I know even at 205 degrees that is not that hot I just hate seeing the gauge there.
So what I am asking is where do your 96-98's run temp wise in varying conditions. How different are they in the winter when they have alot cooler air outside? I have searched quite a bit also so please lets get some new outlooks or is there any fixes for this. I can and will get an aftermarket gauge but would like to keep it stock if possible.
