Hey all..i need your help. My truck has been periodically overheating. The
temp would rise and rise until the "check gauges" light would come on. A
quick romp on the go pedal usually got it to slowly back down. If that
didnt work a quick shut-down and re-start would always fix the problem. Itw
ouldnt appear for another day..sometimes a week.. who knows when it would
go. There was no patter to it. So i just figured a sticky t-stat. No big
deal. (It has been the factory 195 stat since i bought it.) I had been
meaning to get a 180 but had no urge to do it since it wasnt a nessary at
the moment. So i went and go one (180 Stant..thats all they carried). A
half hour later the new one is in..all good. I start the truck up to check
to make sure there is a good seal at the gasket. No problems. I go back to
shut it down at teh temp is past the red line! What the %$#@ I shut it down
and ponder the problem a minute..and well..im turning to you guys. What
could this be??
And yes it is installed properly...
