Running temps
« on: Today at 07:54:49 AM »
What temps are you guys hitting in the heat of summer. Had a busy month with parades and car shows the last couple of weeks but had a 4th parade yesterday and the temps outside were 95 plus. In the parade I got up to 190 or just over,and on the ride home with a lot of steep hills got almost to 200 but came down to 175/180.  Thanks.

Yours sounds like it's running as it should. I drove mine a couple of times yesterday and with ambient temp in the upper 90s, it got to 190-200 with the louvers full open. This was driving down the road, not at parade speed.
