So I've noticed that my engine seems to run fine, but when I stop for more the five minutes or so when I'm already at opperating tempature it seems that the needle likes to creep past half way almost up to 3/4 and my fan will kick in and catch up with it to bring it back to opperating. I'm not quite sure if that's normal or what's up but my previous 70 degree C thermostat seemed like it would let the engine get to opperating temp on cooler days. Only reason I am concerned is because I'm moving south and don't want to deal with it later..
Current set up is:
S52 with aprox 48k
New aftermarket m42 radiator
New BMW 82 degree C thermostat
New metal impeller water pump (can't recall the brand)
Original DME temp sensor
New BWD e30 singal pin temp sensor
New BMW heater core and pipes
New gates hoses
New BMW 3 pin 80 degree C temp sensor for fan (from 95 TI)
New hayden pushed fan (can't recall size)
And just reinstalled the A/V so that won't help either.
Any tips would be appreciated. I'm fairly certain all of the air is bled out as I've been using my Air Lift to refill the system.
