212 alittle High this is the highest it’s gone , sitting in traffic

60 f Pittsburgh pa

The longer you sit the more it will climb. I saw 209F off roading last summer & I reached 215F at one time driving back from the lake pretty loaded. As long as the temp goes back down once you move = consider it normal as the temps are going to rise/fall. It’s when you reach say 215F, then it jumps to 220F = you have a problem!

Yeah it hit 215 but if I give it throttle it cools down , what should I set my ultraguage alarm to? 217?

I’d do 215F then you have time to watch it jump or level out. Also is your Efan on at 209F? Make sure it’s working.

It just hit 221 after sitting so I might have to put a 180 thermostat in, I believe it has the 190 now

It hits 221 but after a few seconds goes back down to around 210-215
