I’m in the process of running my engine in, I’ve done around 250miles so far, seem to have a problem with the water temperature…
When driving on open roads the water temperature is around 80degrees according to the FC Commander, when I hit traffic the temperature rises and rises, I’ve seen it hit 105degrees before I’ve turned the engine off.
The temperature does drop once I reach the open road again, which obviously leads me to believe it’s the fan, I’ve checked it and it seems to be working fine, it’s a SPAL uprated one. When I had the car set up they did say once the car was running full power the single fan wouldn’t be sufficient, but would be fine for running in…
The water temperature gauge on the dash dials does not rise even in traffic, it’s just the digital temperature read out from the FC Commander, surely they both take a reading from the same sensor?
Any ideas?
