Is this temp a problem?
1976 0r 77 f150 4x4 running at 210-220 degrees while idling and driving for extended periods in 1st or 2nd gear. The thermostat for this vehicle is 195 degrees, which i replaced. I am not sure at what temp i should be concerned about the truck overheating and/or being damaged. I have installed an aftermarket radiator fan that has helped keep the temp down a little, but it still gets close to the above temps.
by the way, the engine is a 300 six, w/ a 4 speed manual
pls advise, thx
