normal temp we should see 190-200This temperature of about 200 degrees i posted was after a flush, new thermostat, new antifreeze and a brisk 2-3 mile run down the road and back home again. I dont think it would have stayed in this range on a typical day.........Tom

My question is am i...

My 6.0, 82,000 mile diesel truck is not a daily driver so i am blessed that it is only used to haul our small camper during the summer months. During a short 25 mile trip there was no heat in the cab. I played with the controls, listened to the vents open and close ( floor, front vents, defrost...
