RAV-GT4 Forums Junkie Toymods member I supported Toymods Location: Rydalmere, NSW Registered: May 2002	Re: how cool is too cool? Thu, 17 February 2005 10:43 Thanks for the replies guys. I'm only asking because I have my thermo fans setup to run fulltime after getting a major scare when we took it out to tune it last year (before the head work). The Power FC shut itself off after it got up to 120°C only because the coolant was being forced out of the system by the crack in the head, thereby allowing it to overheat. Now I think I've gone the opposite way by over-compensating. The engine is a hot bitch to be sure... but I have a 71°C thermostat in there and it doesn't get to opening temperature on most days, except for hot ones (the temp needle sticks to around 75°C at that point). The engine feels hot if you put your hand up against it, but the temp gauge says otherwise. How hard is it to implement a thermo-switch? I'm after a decent one not one of those old-style ones that look like a copper probe you stick in the pipe with a pot on the other end to adjust the temp. What to do?..
