c3 running warm?
Hey guys, I have a question about my 79 running warm. It gets up to about
230 at interstate speeds after bout 10 minutes or so. When I drop back to side roads or under say 50mph, the temp comes back down. Now im smart enuff to know that higher rpm + more heat, and vice versa. Ive already replaced radiator, water pump and thermostat(185) . The exhaust smells fuely, like it may be running a little rich, or possibly retarded causing the engine to run warm??? Is this a normal temp range and is there something Im overlooking?. Btw it does not have the lower front spoiler and im wondering if that has something to do with it. Any thoughts? Larry in Va Beach |
