Right after a week of drivin i still think my fans r cuttin in far 2 much n my temp gauge in the dash isnt exactly the best

so yesterday i fitted a revotec temp gauge, looks good and from what i can c works really well,

But from what i can c looks like my fans r cuttin in bout 85/90c n cuttin back out at 80, does this sound right?

The sender 4 the gauge is in the hose leadin from the block 2 the rad, i would have thought that they r cuttin in 2 soon,

" b fair at this time of year this aint no bad thin least it stops everthing over heatin but its a bit of a pain in the ass,

Can the Thermostat in the bottom of the rad go weak?

 

Any1?

 

There is NO thermostat in the bottom of the rad.
There is a switch for the fans in the bottom of the rad, so I assume this is what you refer to ?
If the fans are cutting in and out and bringing the temperature down, they are doing their job, they DO stay on a long time, especially if it is 2wd(?)
Your fans sound perfectly normal in their behaviour, you worry too much.

Try some water wetter may solve your problem and make car run a bit cooler, and stop your fans coming on as much

 

Wicked, tis true i worry 2 much
