Mr Mason: Old car engines normally run between 180 and 190 degrees. At idle on a hot day 210 is normal and it should drop once under way. Pressurized cooling systems are designed to allow coolant temperatures above 212 without boiling over. I think you are fine.

I am imagining aiming an infrared temp sensor at the thermostat housing. For both our 62 (383) and 64 (361), I will see up to about 208 degrees F. Guessing that’s approaching the limit… Thanks, dave & Kya Sent from my iPhone -- For archives go to http://www.forwardlook.net/300-archive/search.htm#querylang --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Chrysler 300 Club International" group.
