working engine temperature for preupdated 202s?

[predrag1]

my brothers is a 99 and mine is a 94, his engine temp rarely goes over 80, mine goes close to 100 even after replacing the head gasket, is this normal or could it be something else?


Im not sure what kind of oil I put in last time, I heard the wrong oil makes engines heat up

sorry posted in wrong section

Mine usually is between 90 - 100.. sometimes it goes over 100

mines usually at 90 when im flying down the freeway, if its stop and go traffic its lmost touches the 100mark. Predrag you have M1 oil just to let you know.

in my c36 80 on the freeway, in heavy traffic never hits 100 maybe close.... c43 the same

if you want it to run cooler put a lower temp thermastat or check to see it the one you have is sticking , a sticking thermastat can run the engine alot hotter.....
