Getting hot on freeway but not idling in city

By Steve M - 05/24/2004 5:49:12 AM; IP 209.115.87.2

Anybody have a clue why my 390 gets hot on the freeway and not when idling in the city or driving in the city? It is around 190 degrees in city and on the freeway it goes up to about 215. I only drive it about 3000 rpm on the freeway.. The timing is set right and I can't figure out why it does this.

This thread, so far...
