full length IC fitted now cars running hotter much hotter
hello guys
uprated my ford standard intercooler to an airtec full mount with town fans, so fitted it, fans are sucking not blowing, the car now runs hooter, the oil is reading 110 not 95 like it used to, the water temp gauge is at say 2 o'clock on a clock face where before it used to sit at say 4 o'clock
checked fans again, flushed and drained all coolant and checked thermostat was opening, even with twin fans on switch they can't bring the water temp back down, booting it makes the water temp and oil temp go higher
so my conclusion the radiator is not getting the air flow it needs or could it now be running leaner because more cooler air is getting in???
is this normal? it was better with the ford intercooler on, its running 1 bar of boost, mfi,
please help
