operating temperature

Hi,

It is 93 f outside and my Ford class c V-10 radiator temperature is 216. Is that normal and/or safe?

  • Your cooling system thermostat does not open until coolant reaches 192-196 Deg F. Its OK. Boiling temperature of WATER is 212 Deg F and pressurized cooling system increases this temperature even more.
  • My Tahoe runs normally at 210...pulling or not. So did the 2007 Tahoe.
