The Great Running Hot Debate..And Yes I did a Search

You COULD install a switch BUT you run the risk of forgetting!! There is a fan cycling switch/relay you can replace.


Now, play devils advocate...


I installed an electric fan in my foxbody. Its controlled by an adjustable temperature switch (its comes on at a certain temperature even of the switch is off) and a 25 amp switch. I also wired in an indicator light to ensure I knew it was running or not.

i know that egr's do lower intake temps, maby it could be something with ur egr...

i've been debateing just ripping all that shit out and capping it idk if it's worth it or what i should do with it

I deleted my EGR and had no increases in operating temperature.

You have to have the EGR "turned off" in the ECM. That something to do when you have it tuned.

i was on the fence buying the SCT 4 bank chip. is that something they can turn off?

Just came back to NYC from a bike trip to Montreal..WOOHOO....Now car of course still runs hot. Im going to try changing the pump. I cant monitor fuel pressure while driving so its a possibility.. Everything else I did...EGR may be bad....Dont know. I did notice my check engine light came on today. Ill have to look into that. Still looking for a set of headers and Ill have everythng I need just about

 

[Bub]

it's stupid hot in Chicago today and with my a/c running my coolant is about 210, it will spike for sure if i turn it off. i'm thinking either a new switch for the fan or maybe upgrade the fan all together

 

[XxslowpokexX]

210 really isnt hot with AC on. A mark viii fan is a great upgrade if you plan on doing so..me I know I have an issue somewhere and its not the fan!

 

[FrankenStang]

yup, only 100 here in milwaukee today..whohoo sticky tires

Bigger aftermarket radiator is best mod to lower temp.

Stock radiator sucks...

I'd get an aftermarket radiator if I knew a good brand that worked without being $500-$700.

And lol at you guys whining about 100 degree weather.

Frankily I love the weather this heat is the shit. So long as the mustang can still be out in it. Do u really think an aftermatket radiator is needed? I have a CAI flow master msd ignitian and im gonna run lt headers maybe and h/c/I in a few years
