Why does my car not reach operating temperature?
At first it reached operating temperature fine, a while later the temperature wouldn’t climb above 80 °C, then it would climb above 70 °C (minimum on the temperature scale) only in longer trips, and now it doesn’t at all. I don’t think anyone has been tampering with the cooling system, this problem progressed naturally.
What happens when engine heats up to operating temp?
As the engine heats up the ring-cylinder mate becomes looser so that the engine will run smoother and easier…but if there is too much wear the combustion gases will begin to blow by the ring-cylinder surfaces and will cause each stroke to lose power.
What should coolant temp be when car is off?
Thermostats normally open at around 80-90°C and the hose will only get hot once the thermostat has opened. Point is that the sensor is reading fine at low temperatures. I checked the ECU readings and when the engine is off for a day the coolant temperature more or less matches the outside temperature, so it definitely did not drift.
When did engine not to start when hot start?

What happens when engine gets up to temp?
Truck runs great cold when it gets up to temp the power decreases greatly. new fuel pump, new fuel filter, new air filter has been hooked up to two different computers and it’s showing no codes at all. New muffler and dual pipes,the old ones were bad. im at a loss and so are my mechanics
