little help
I have a friend that just purchased a 85 with 130,000 miles. He would like to know what are the operating tempertures of the oil, antifreeze, the alternator output and any other items.
thanks,
Gary

Lets see, oil is normally 10° F or so warmer then the coolant. Coolant on a 195° stock thermostat should be around 195°. Fan turn on temp is 230°ish stock. Alt cold 14.3 and 13.5ish warm. This is from memory, mine does not have a stock thermostat. Have him join the forum! Over in C4 tech there is a tech FAQ that may help him to.
