[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 394558, member: 3278"] With the tan lead connected the engine limits to around 2500? Verify that is it by shutting off the engine, temporarily disconnecting the tan lead, starting and seeing if the engine runs past 2500. You will have to do a stop and re-start to verify. That engine should run at it's warmest at and just above idle. The thermostat will bring the engine up to around 135f or so. If you do not have a digital pyrometer handy then you should be able to hold the palm of your hand on the top of the cylinder head for around 5 seconds give or take. Beyond idle the thermostat begins to be by-passed and the engine will normally run around 100f or so....depending on water temp, etc. [/QUOTE]
