Question
grosss
Just had my coolant flushed because I don't know if the previous owner ever had it done and the existing coolant didn't look very healthy.
Part of the reason I did it is because the truck seems to take forever to warm up to temp. 1999 Silverado (99-02 BS) 4x4 with the 5.3L. I have a Scangauge hooked up and get a digital temp readout (sorry for the metric units!) before my operating temp would get up to around 90 degrees C (~190F) but now it barely makes it to 70C (~160F).
Did a search and couldn't find this info, what should the stock thermostat be, and what's the typical operating temperature range? It takes a good bit of driving to get anywhere close to the above operating temperatures...
Any tips would help!
