What happens to the temp when the fan kicks in?
The issue with the 100C factory cut-in is, by the time the fan kicks on the engine is already heat soaked. The fan will only cap the temp there, it is not sufficient to bring the temps down by any significant measure. I have seen temp drops of ONE degree per minute, until I got to 35-40 mph again.

Is the 3.6 Pentastar running warm or cold?
I’m noticing my JK, the 3.6 sits dead center and mostly just a tick to the warm side. Took it for the first long distance trip today and during some prolonged hill climbs of PA roads where a low gear / high rpm was needed, the temp gauge would even drift over toward the 4/5 warm point.
What kind of fan does a VFR Rad use?
The standard vfr fan blade and a manual switch was the only thing that worked for me. Check the inside of the rad as VTR fan blade without stone guards will bend all the fins over if it picks up the right side stone. The radiators are still like new, the reversed airflow of the vtr fan blades just didn’t work out for me.
