Mine was running about 200-210 in just about any temp. I put a new thermostat in and the temps dropped to around 195.
Pretty sure the thermostat was not opening all the way. You're doing what I would do first (assuming your radiator is clean).

Greetings folks,

Last week, my daughter was driving the LX and got the dreaded " ABS & Brake dash indicators " along with the annoying buzzer in the cabin letting me know the brakes failed. Yesterday I replaced the ABS brake booster motor and all is well. The...
That actually makes perfect sense. I was in a spot where there was one way traffic control and the hill climb was at slower speed… 35-40. I thought it odd that the heat spiked with such a slow climb but if the TC didn’t lock in third that makes...
I believe most of it has to do with whether or not the torque converter is locked. It locks in 4th and 5th but not 3rd. I tow in 4th and try not to let it drop to third much which sometimes means going a little slower in the show lane. But on...
Today I did the upper control arms on the front, and the front shocks. Per usual drivers side took 2 hrs, passenger took 1 hr. Now she only rattles on the back half!
Unless you consider what I understand to be a Chinese curse, “May you live in interesting times!”.
My only personal experience with the StrutMaster kit, and their re-use of the AHC torsion bars, on a vehicle that has had AHC removed, was on a...
