What should the temp of the coolant be?
The thermostat OPENS at 195F degrees; but, the temperature continues to rise to the normal operating temperature. The temperature of the coolant can rise above 212F degrees because coolant is pressurized (NOT because the water is mixed with antifreeze). Boil-over won’t occur until about 265F degrees, because of the pressurization (15 or 16 psi).
When does the coolant temperature sensor need to be replaced?
Noted below are a few of the warning signs that will alert you that the coolant temperature sensor is damaged and needs to be replaced. The engine is getting poor fuel economy: when the coolant temperature sensor is not functioning correctly, it tends to relay false information to the engine control module.
What should the temperature of an engine cooling fan be?
Engine cooling fans may engage at one speed or multiple speeds and may kick on anywhere between 180 and 220 degrees.
What is ” normal ” coolant temp on a Ford Raptor?
I have the coolant temp enabled via forscan, 212 is pretty much where my truck sits with normal driving. just curious as to what “normal” for this truck is, and what kind of temps does everyone see in the summer or under heavy loads. I’m wondering the same thing.

Can a high coolant temperature cause engine damage?
Even if these components are mounted in your engine bay, a high coolant temperature can quickly lead to high engine bay temperatures which can cause erroneous readings and damage to these electrical components. Lastly, high temperatures can lead to damage of others components when they reach their thresholds.
How can I lower the coolant temperature in my engine?
There are drastic measures you can take to lower your coolant temperature like replacing your thermostat your radiator. Thermostats are designed to open at different temperatures so a thermostat that allows coolant to flow to the radiator at a lower temperature can help keep your engine running cooler.
Can a bluedevil coolant reduce coolant temperature?
BlueDevil Engine Cool is compatible with all types of engine coolant and can reduce your coolant temperature by 25 o F!! You can find BlueDevil Engine Cool at any of our partnering local auto parts retailers like:
What should temp be on Jeep Wrangler 1008?
From some resistance tables I’ve found on the internet, 1008 is somewhere between 80 and 90 C (175 and 194 F). Would this be normal even if tstat is rated at 195F? All the time temp gauge shows around 70-75 C, it reads lower.
What should the temperature be in a marine cooling system?
You can shoot the temperature of the thermostat housing which should tell you whether the temperature that the gauge on the dash is reading is accurate or not. 2. Normal marine fresh water cooling systems allow the engine to operate at temperatures moderately above 160 degrees F.
What should my operating temp be on my 91 YJ?
My 91 YJ (with a 4 banger) had an operating temp of 210°F. I just replaced the thermostat (and heater core and their hoses along with a rad flush) with a 180°F variety. Now my operating temp has dropped to about 185°. I assume this is because of the thermostat change (and possibly the other cooling system replacements).

How can you tell if an engine is running too hot or too cool?
To really know if an engine is, or is not, running too hot, or too cool, is to use an accurate thermometer. How smoothly an emgine runs can INDICATE (but, not prove) that it is (or, not) running at the correct temperature. The normal operating temperature of the coolant in an engine is about 210F to 240F degrees.
What should the coolant temp be in a Chevy Cobalt?
Here are the specifications. • Engine coolant temperature (ECT) exceeds approximately 106°C (223°F). • A/C refrigerant pressure exceeds 1 310 kPa (190 psi). • After the vehicle is shut off, the ECT at key-off is greater than 140°C (284°F) and system voltage is more than 12 volts. The fans will stay on for approximately 3 minutes.
What should the temp of an engine be?
As per the previous post, normally your gauge has no numbers, they just confuse drivers, but an operating range; and if the gauge is about halfway up that’s your normal operating temperature. Any major deviation from that is cause for concern and should be investigated.
Engine cooling fans may engage at one speed or multiple speeds and may kick on anywhere between 180 and 220 degrees.
What’s the coolant temperature of a Cummins Engine?
With age and gaining of wisdom the thermostats were raised in temperature and pressures were increased to 13-15 lbs which allowed the engine to maintain coolant temperatures just below boiling but hot enough for the engine to run at greatest efficiency. Importantly this allows the radiator to pass greater heat amounts on the hottest days.
What’s the normal operating temperature of a car?
While we don’t have your vehicle specific information, normal operating temperature for most vehicles can range between 190-220 degrees Fahrenheit. Thank you! -BDP
