Engine coolant temperature gauge reading 3/4 hot

[thejaw77]

The pressure test was for the cooling system. I did a compression test awile back and all the cylinders where uniform. I would like to do another compression test though since its been some time and components have been replaced. Is there an easy way to deal with a stuck valve?

When I did the compression test I think what I got was 140...it was about 8 months ago. What about a partially clogged converter? I am getting spark and everything. I just wonder if the engine ecu is faulty. What would throw off the ignition timing?

Get a genuine temp sender and get rid of those damn +4 plugs...regular champion plugs will do.

seriously. Bosch platinum plugs suck ass.

I have since gone back to champion coppers for the fatter spark. I have a genuine temp sender (Part#1425) unit on order from Rovahfarm. Anyone cure the P1316 misfire? I've been chasing this misfire for a 1 1/2 years now.
