Why? If you need to mess with it, change the cooling fan level.

I prefer the PowerStat in my '94... but even it won't keep it at 160.
A true temp of 160 would be inefficient anyway.....

IF you could get it to stay at 160, it would run rich, ( ie you want
HOW MUCH for the convertors) all the time. but my guess is unless you
have Griffin or some other brand of radaitor you are not going to see
any where near that. Greg
