Fan on/off temp setting with 160 thermostat?
Fan on/off temp setting with 160 thermostat?
Whats the general setting for the Fan1 and Fan2 on/off setting with a 160 thermostat?
The factory 180 thermo has them set at Fan1 on at 183* F
Fan2 on at 192* F.
And the fan hystresis at 3*C which is about 5*F change before they go off.
For the 160, should I just lower these values by about 20* F and leave the hystresis the same?

From the factory fans don't come on until about 220.

I'm just going by what the fan on/off was set to in the stock factory tune looking at the file in Tunercat, they were 183 and 192*F.

The stock factory tune fan settings should have bee 226° and 235°. If not, they must have been altered.
What you have now is more than low enough, IMO, if not too low.

So I'll change my current settings to 180/190*F..that sounds more reasonable now that I see whats going on...no wonder my coolant never hit 220 since the fans were on all the time with a 180 thermo in there before.
