carpet samples Posted May 25, 2008 Report Posted May 25, 2008 just wondering what temperature my ke 55 should run at. it runs at around 80 atm but my mate reckons its not running hot enough Quote
Jimpoole Posted March 8, 2009 Report Posted March 8, 2009 Anyone got a picture of where their temperature needle sits at? Thanks in advance to anyone who does. Mine sits about 3/4 up. Maybe too hot? Quote
philbey Posted March 8, 2009 Report Posted March 8, 2009 Put an aftermarket gauge in, your factory dash gauge doesn't mean anything. Quote
roladude Posted March 8, 2009 Report Posted March 8, 2009 When I bought my 55 it sat at 3/4 but since putting another radiator in it's sitting at 1/4. My original guage is working fine. Quote
Jason KE30 Posted March 8, 2009 Report Posted March 8, 2009 When I had a f*cked radiator in my ke30 i would sometimes get up in the red. Now that I have a commodore radiator and camry thermo fan it doesn't even reach quarter. Probably runs a bit too cool which is why i'm going to get a temp sensor for it. Quote
JiP Posted March 8, 2009 Report Posted March 8, 2009 Has it got a 4K in it?? Cause I had the same problem when I swapped my 4K for 5K. I then had to stick the 4K temp sensor onto the 5K. Quote
Falken_KE30 Posted March 8, 2009 Report Posted March 8, 2009 My ksev would sit at 1/4 all the time.. proly move to 1/3 after a good thrash for 30 mins.. Quote
ke20rolla Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 My ke55 4k temp needle sits at 1/4 aswell. :D Quote
Jimpoole Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 I got my car one year ago and it was in a shit state. Before I flushed the radiator and renewed the thermostat thingo it was on 1/4 but now it's on 3/4 Wtf? Quote

Maybe the old thermostat was one of those ones that opened at a lower temperature? Quote
Jimpoole Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Maybe the old thermostat was one of those ones that opened at a lower temperature? Hmmm. Didn't think of that. Thanks :y: Quote
Evan G Posted June 29, 2009 Report Posted June 29, 2009 mines 1/4,1/2 at max but when i went on the freeway after doing my sump gasket and timing cover, temp gauge and fuel gauge dropped to 0 all the time i was doing 100kph but when doing 80kph it will return to 1/4? work that out LOL! :) Quote
