my bet...everything is normal. the gauge stayed pegged in the go for it...

my guess is that the worry out weighs system efficiency :)

I changed my temp gauge the Moment I bought our bus. It's the most important gauge to me along with oil pressure and air pressure. But seriously, that should be high on the list.

    It makes me happy when I don't read a post that says "I was climbing a hill and a lot of white smoke came out of my exhaust".   :)

LOL, you mean like my post? :D

That's what did mine in, one of them damn big hills. Well that and crappily misadjusted valves. But I'm sure the hill had at least a little to do with it  :o

That is why I plan most of my trips such that I spend more time going down hills rather than up.  It saves the engine also saves no fuel mileage.  ;D
