Thread: Puzzled over temp sender location

Tweet

No, I certainly appreciate all of the answers and am not discounting any of the reasons, I hope anything I said wasn't misconstrued as being ungrateful for the responses I got. What I am trying to determine now is if I should go to a higher thermostat to get the temp up a little. This is a strange one for me, because in Florida we NEVER have a car that runs too cool, just the opposite. Plus, I could see a minor variation between the front and back of the engine, but 60 degrees is a huge swing.

What I may do is see how the car does on the trip to Billetproof and then change to a 180 after that if the temps stay too cold on the road. I just thought of something else. I am taking a job at a marina probably within the next week. My friend Craig is the Service Manager there and has one of those infared guns, I could have him shoot the entire block, looking for what the various temps are all over the block surface.
