Fwd: '83 UrQ water temp



 


      With summer here in Los Angeles on us. I need some advise on normal 
water operating temperatures for the above car. Radiator was rebuilt a few 
years ago. The car does not boil over. I have an ABT gauge panel with a VDO 
water temp gauge from
100 to 250 degrees. I've replaced the sender to eliminate that. The car runs 
real warm, at least in my mind, at 220 + degrees with no hotrodding. I 
understand these cars run hot, but how much?   
      Anyone with aux. gauges please respond. What have you done to keep the 
temp down? I'm paranoid of blowing up my motor and tired of having the heater 
on as the temp hits 240 degrees. Also what graduation of gauge would you 
suggest?
       Thanks  George Naas
