Hi
Recently installed a water gauge. The temperature sensor is put into the top rad hose in an adapter. And I find the water temperature low, 75-80c when driving.
The OEM water gauge shows normal operating temp
Thermostat is fairly new (OEM replacement), I'm running full size alu rad (DC2 size in EK9).
There is no air in the system. Oil temperature seems fine
The temperature has been 90c and up to about 95c and then the fan kicked in. So it seems precise. But that was at a race day and in idle
It never reach 90c, max 80c when driving. Is this normal. Should I be worried?
Or is it ok as long as the OEM gauge is at the middle?
