Meter

Does a guy need a meter to check his exhaust temperature.And turbo boost. I notice my heat goes from 180 to 215 when I get on steep grade. Isx 600
  • Probably not too abnormal. Keep the RPMs up very high when you’re going up a steep hill also if your radiators a bit dirty it can cause an increase in temperature. If the engine coolant hasn’t been changed in the last 3 to 5 years that can aggravate the situation.Mine is done the same thing on steep hills. The important thing is to keep the engine RPM up high very high to keep the water circulating good.
