Just Changed The T-Stat (170) &%$@#

[SilvrSRT10]

its been nice the last few days in here and I've been breaking 200 easily in traffic!! Cant wait to get the 170 T-stat on!

In traffic, your still going to see 200. The fan doesn't kick on any sooner. The main benefit of the 170 is during crusing when air is cooling the radiator. As soon as you slow or sit at a light, it'll go right to 200.

oh contraire, with the Stage II PCM the fan is kicking on sooner. I dont mind hitting 200 degrees but I'm a few clicks over it after I stop at the first stop sign or traffic light right off the Interstate!!

I've got the B&G flash and mine will still go to 200. Once I start moving, the temp comes back down.

Did any of you guys put in a different fluid when you changed the T-stat?

I stayed with the stock orange koolaide stuff.
