so I finally got my t-bird through emissions. and now I can drive it. my problem is it runs very very warm. I am talking upwards of the needle almost to the right side of the "NORM" marks on the stock guage.
It seems the fans do not come on, I have the spoiler installed under the rad support like it was from factory, new aluminum radiator, new water pump and all hoses are new. I bleieve there are no air pockets in the cooling system as far as I can tell.
I can acitvate the fans using my scan tool on both speeds, but I am not sure if the temp guage is accurate (probably not) but the car just seems to run very very hot.
oh yeah stock tune, stock t-stat setting, everything is stock, except for underdrive pulley.
i have my doubts about the stock exhaust being partially plugged, its on the list of things I need to change yet.
any ideas?
