6.0 ect temp too low??
Hey guys quick question..
I'm heading out on a 500 mile trip and notice that my coolant temp won't come above 182* ?
Can I make the trip, and then change my t stat when I get home?
Any concerns with driving it?

Thats OK I do the same thing, Chris is helping me on a no start 6.0 and we basically rebuilt the engine without him knowing the year.

Agree with the others. Always better to stick open than closed!
