Overheating Question

[426HemiCharger]

He's the kinda guy who doesn't drive mopars in winter (he'll tell you he doesn't), but when you crank her up every week to keep the juices flowing then she'll never warm up in the cold. He's up by Racine around here where I live and it gets damn cold enough to freeze the snot on the inside of your nose.

A T-Stat will maintain an even temp also.

I experienced something very similar to that in 1987 when I first got car on the road. Some dumb *** (me) put the fan was on backwards.
