GQ Water Temp in degrees?

Post by Mulisha »

hi guys

Quick question

What is the operating temp in degrees and also on the water temp gauge ?

I filled my visious hub up with silcon oil and now the car doesn't warm up and stays cold gets to about 65 degrees on a speco gauge.( gauge might not be spot on though)

Thanks alot

Rick.

You can fill up the diesel ones.

Petrol can be filled by tapping a small hole and tapping a thread for a bolt.


Mulisah.. if its the fan.. I found that it works muhc better not filling it full..

My fan kicks in jut at the right temperature and cools the car down fast, its jut a matter of trial and error by taking out a bit of fluid at a time.

Has it still got the thermostat in there. As I would have thought that if it was closed. No water would be able to flow thru the radiator. So dosent really matter how cool the fan gets the water in the radiator, if it dosent cycle.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY....
