Engine Water Temp?
#6
my over heating page covers every single way to overheat.,
one is fan belt slip.
thermostat in backwards
same , air bleed hole in stat not up, trapping air in the block causes 3 things to go nuts/ eCT, stat and dash gauge.
is the fans , radiator shroud missing?

this fan clutch on this car does not work like other, cars.
read the words here (factory words)
http://www.fixkick.com/overheating.html#clutch
notice the regardless word , at iDLE
hot or cold the fan turns the same speed as the pump, notice they did not say engine, the engine pulley is bigger than the pump, pulley forming a step up in pump rpm and fan.
my guess is the ratio (easy to measure in 5min) is 7 for engine, and 4 for the pump that is a 1.75:1 ratio. means at 800 rpm hot the fan spins 1.75 faster.
so is 1400 rpm
i idle car, point my trusty , laser diode hand held RPM gage at the fan pulley and then the fan hub, and if both are 1400 rpm what do I know
I know in 5min work the cutch is not bad slipping and the fan belt dont slip either.
as engine races, the fast stops going faster (overheated at 55c air is overheated) the RPM of fan stops at 3100 rpm even when 5000 rpm engine spins pump pulley at 8750rpm as it sure does.
this limit prevents the fan blades from flying off hub, )

see? this is not a huge V8 engine with steel fan and slow crank., its a rice burner, "screams"
