Which tranny do u have? The old, awful 4 speed or the newer, very nice, 5 speed?
Monitor in both modes 2 C if they read different. Use each as a baseline. Whichever u decide to use, I'd not let the temp ever increase more than 30 degrees.
I had a 2001 Georgetown 30' Class'A' Ford F53, 305 HP and monitored with my ScanGauge. It's tranny temp cruised at about 190 degrees. If a long hard pull ever got it hotter than 210 I always pulled over to let it cool. I than had a 2006 National 34' Class'A' Ford F53, 362 HP with the nice 5 speed. Also monitored with the same Scangauge. It always cruised at 165 degrees and never got hotter than 190.
