    faulty thermostat

    Mine wouldn't go above 40c and assumed it was electrical problem related to my voltmeter issue which drops when i put my foot on the brakes but decided to test the thermostat the other day and it was faulty- replaced with new one and now reading correctly at 80c - hopefully running at low temp for a couple of months won't damage the engine?

    Mine seems to take an inordinate amount of time, as in I will start it, let it idle for 2 or 3 minutes while I open the gates, then drive out to the street, another idle for 2 or 3 minutes while I close the gates, THEN in will take another 15-20 minutes to get up to temperature.
    So a total time of at least 20 minutes of running time to get to 89 degrees or whatever it is (that's where mine sits, just below 90c)


    Is that a normal time, or do I have a faulty sensor (doubtful) or a thermostat that is stuck slightly open?
