Hot running ea82


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, so I resealed my motor a while back and the car ran great. Since the weather started getting warm though the car runs stupid hot. On the freeway in the day the car will climb to 20 sit for a minute then climb to 220 sit for a minute then go up to 230/240 and settle. Then it'll drop down when I start slowing down away from freeway speeds. And already my freeway speeds are only 55 on the speedo on 27 inch tires. I have the stock electric fan, and a nice high cfm fan off my dad's race car when he changed to duals, new waterpump, new radiator, I took the thermostat out yesterday, 50/50 mix and a bottle of hyper cool, it doesn't drink coolant like the hg is blown it runs good just gets really hot. If the air is cool the car stays below 200 even on the freeway. I'm in the process of ej25 swapping so I won't have the motor for too much longer but I wanna be able to go to stuff and not worry about breaking. Any ideas?
