Any one know what the temperature gauge “NORMAL” translates into actual temperature. I just rebuilt my cooling system new Radiator, Water Pump, Fan & Clutch, the Hoses and Thermostat.
I put a Motocraft 190 thermostat in and it is sticking. At normal operating temp it stays around just below on the edge the N then at time very intermittent it will quickly rise to the R-M and quickly drop back down to below N. It does it wile at highway speeds and even at low speeds and ideal. So I am almost certain it’s a thermostat.
What I want to know is what does the NORMAL equate to actual numbers. I am guessing that the low side of N is rite around 190 then what would M be or L be. Anyone know for sure.
Thanks
