Anybody? and Peter Henriksen <peterhe@microsoft.com>said: > My water temp runs just under the first "big" marker in everyday > driving, going up to the next marker (smaller) in hot weater and/or > stop-and-go traffic.

About the same here. Mid-range for water, below mid-range for the oil. Running Amsoil 10-30. I have run petro-oil in this car, and then the oil ran 15 degrees or more hotter. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Al Powell Voice: 409/845-2807 107 Reed McDonald Bldg.
