cooling system woes - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hi Carl. No I haven't had it checked yet. I do monitor it closely though. The temp gauge still reads the same way. The radiator pressures up and there is no loss of coolant. With a 195 thermostat, the gauge should be consistently at or around 200 to 210, wouldn't you think? Although, most of the chevy trucks I've been around most always registered much less than actual temps. I will say since I put the new pump and radiator on it doesn't smell hot like it did before. Thanks for asking Carl.
