November 20th, 2012 08:28 PM #1good day masters, not really an actual one but since the gauge i bought is just the normal one.. this only cost me 250 pesos, its grid starts with 120 then 150 then 190 and so on... i really don't know if it's in celcius or fahrenheit. i ran for about 15km today and it did not even move a lil bit. i just assumed that the water temperature did not reached 120 degrees celsius or fahrenheit because im not really sure what is the label of it.
i hope someone could share their ideas about this... thanks in advance...

On average, I think it should be between 90-110 C which is 194-230 F.

November 27th, 2012 07:16 PM #4if the gauge has no numbers on it, midway would be a good reading. but in heavy traffic on a hot day, slightly more than halfway is still ok. and i would start looking at the needle more, if it starts creeping to 3/4 of the way..
my 83 centavos' worth..

November 28th, 2012 08:03 PM #6the thermostat causes faster temp rise in the engine block. you can usually see the needle move after only 2 km.. but if the thermostat is removed, it would take considerably more time for the needle to start moving , mebbe 2 to 3 times longer.
btw, check the connections... baka hindi kunektado..
