4.7l
so i’ve noticed that my temp was fluctuating but not over heating... so i got a new radiator cap and stat..and new coolant. and i believe i burped/bled the system right? i figured that would help it stay at a normal temp. which i thought would be slightly to the left of the middle mark. but it’s hasnt helped. when fully warmed up at idle it sits slightly to the left of the middle mark. and after a few mins of driving it slowly rises up to the middle straight up and down which i’ve heard that’s normal with 4.7l, but if i’m going up long steep hill it will go a little to the right of the middle mark and then go back to the left of the middle mark. it never gets close to the red not even quarter past the middle mark. but i still don’t think it’s normal. but i heard it is.... im curious if my radiator is clogged or toast. idk what do to do at this point. anyone have an idea?
