When i drive it runs at 180 degrees...but when i slow down it heats up 220 and tries to keep climbing before i shut it off...the fans come on when i turn on the AC but even when they turn on they arent very strong...but unless i turn on the AC they dont come on....i took the car to mineke and they said it might be the PCM....any ideas on this problem??
thanks
On that car when you put the A/C on it throws it into a bypass mode to where the fan runs it's normal,but when you don't have the A/C on The fan should come on around whatever the thermostat rating is . try dropping the thermostat down to a 165 rating and also check your tempature sensor to see if it's operating at the right setting. Useually when a car over heats it'll damage the sensor so best to replace it to make sure and check your water pump flow also,it should move the water in the radiator quite rapidly whenever the thermostat opens .
