I have a 99, and when it get's warmed up, it always tops out about where his temp. gauge is. Looks like about 185?
What should be the top out temperature if this is too hot?
I have owned mine now for about three months, and love it.
I think I'm due for a clutch, since it engages approximately 2-3 inches from the top.
Figure that's a good time to get the IMS retrofit. It currently has around 74,000 miles. Don't have any idea what's been done, since there were no good service records. But I figure it's the factory clutch.
The last two times I have had it out, I have smelled, a slight sweet, antifreeze odor. (but my passenger did not. May have actually been the passenger, haha...) It does not, and never has leaked in my garage. Maybe it's leaking somewhere so slightly that it burns up prior to parking?
Any ideas?
