So it’s 102-104 daily here right now in CenTex.
I put in Preston Flush last Friday, drove regularly.
Saturday I drained it, including block, ran only Distilled (don’t say use a hose, there is so much calcium and mineral in our water I don’t want that in my engine)
I have a small leak in my heater core, so I installed the Dorman Bypass (2 connectors and a u shape hose).
I changed out a new Stant Superstant 195 Thermostat with the small hole and in the 12 o’,clock position.
Drained 2 more times and ran Distilled. Emptied including block and filled with 50/50 Zerex G-05 HOAT and distilled.
Still getting 222-226 at times in the TrailDash.
All components were 100% replaced by a shop when I bought it for my son in 2015. They used non Mopar radiator.
I’m going to put in the Mopar Radiator (it’s been ordered) and check numbers again. If that doesn’t bring them down, then I’ll get a new fan clutch.
There is no leak in the water pump, so I’m going to do this 1 part at a time ish to just see if really the Mopar radiator makes a significant difference. Hoping so.
