Tell me about it...bamn 90+ degrees and fricken hot at night too.
Try looking forward to summer when you have leather seats, no AC, and only one working window...
However, 160* stat and fans retuned, so my car never gets above the 1/4 mark.

Can you run a 160* stat, without reprograming the fans?

The retuned fans play a far bigger role in keeping temps down than the 160* stat does.

It's not the motor, its the regulator. I've been putting off replacing the regulator for a long time now. Not sure how to remove and reinstall it.

The temp gauge on my SS still barely moves. Running a 4 row Fluidline radiator with Spiel fans that never turn off. Gauge moves barely above 100 and that is with the AC on.

It doesn't feel like summer until there's a spare set of boardshorts, sunblock, and sand all in my car
