Re: [VWofT] Coolant Temp?

[pellom@yorku.ca]

Jim,
Are you referring to Oil temp or water temp. I'm referring to the water temp 
reading that high.  My Oil temp has hit 120C.  I think that that is okay but 
I'm more concerned about the coolant temp.  I'm gonna put in a new coolant temp 
sender tomorrow morning and I'll what happens.

TIA

Sal

That's perfect.  You want the oil temp at or
