Hey - It has been hot in WV this past two months - temps in high 90's most days. Went to Harbor Freight and bought a non contact thermometer to check radiator temps after a run. I register 180 degrees when I shut off the engine after a five mile circuit - temps rise to 200-206 after shutoff - no boil over. The radiator was "flow tested" at a local shop and declared good. I run 50/50 mix water/antifreeze with no water wetter or any other additive. Motor runs fine, but is the running temp too high? Should I flush out the radiator - engine? I do not think the engine was flushed before I bought the car. There is a lot of heat felt through the floorboards. At 35 mph it subsides some. Thanks, BW
