Well took it for a test drive today, first thing that happend is the starter motor wouldn't shut off at dennys, after a slight tap on my bitchin Hatachi starter (pos aftermarket junk) I was on my way. went down the 14 and downhill it got up to 210, ok thats kinda normal from what ive read. Now back up hill it started climbing, up two meaduim hills it went to 215, the third it went past 220 and I backed it down then took Searra hwy. back. by now it was noon and about 90+ degrees out, any little grade it went up past 220 then on downhill would go back to 210-215. I never really heard the fan clutch kicking on so I think Im gonna try that fan clutch Don tried. Also when I got home my trans breather was spitting oil out so I zip tied the dipstick to the top and checked where the level was at the bottom of the dipstick,the add mark was about two inches above the pan, this is a lokar dipstick.
