[QUOTE="DZL JIM, post: 1383554, member: 153"] When ambient is 70° everything is fine. You can see when stat opens, etc. I really don't think anything is "wrong", t-stat is newer, radiator is clean and in great shape, fan works when commanded on, etc. Other than having little frontal area, small intercooler, small radiator, small trans cooler, and high performance mods add up to not a very good tow vehicle. This is a high 12 second 4x4 van. 190/100% injectors and Stage-3 turbo. I know a smaller turbo would spool up faster and if EGT's stayed lower everything else would be lower, too. Once on flat ground temps come down, but under a load it gets hot. Saturday I saw 221° coolant temps towing a light box trailer, ambient was 85 - 90 ish. I asked the tuner a while ago about lowering the fan-on point, he has been very difficult to get anything from the past few months. I'll keep hounding him. I am looking for info on upgrades to help my combo run cooler, but I think I have a direction. Thanks for all the input. [/QUOTE]
