Title: Engine Temperature
Post by: Arielsq4 on Tuesday, 25 August 2020, 05:26 PM
Does anyone know what temperature the engine runs at .
Using an infered  temp gun the cylinder head is up to 160 C
The oil cooler fan cuts in as it should  . Just thought  the cylinder head  was a bit hot ?

As for the temp of the head?  Sounds like one for  @Andre !

The oil fan cuts in at 120c & out at 108c, so I'd assume the engine was a bit hotter than that.

Pretty std engine surface temp.  Nothing to worry about, just don't touch it, hot enough to grill a steak on (or your leg, don't ask how I know....)
