Yes, through the tuner. I tried out a different tuner and I noticed my coolant temps were like 215+ and the fan wasn’t turning on, before temps never reached 200. I asked and he told me if I had a lower temp thermostat, I told him I had the motorcraft 180 degrees. After that he changed the duty cycle and temps returned to normal. Probably my previous tuners tuned for it based on the year of my ST. Since mine had the recall and they installed the lower temp thermostat. And they probably knew. Maybe

A cleaner cylinder favors warmer engine temps. Running it too cold for too long, slowly fouls the cylinders with carbon build up.

Can I ask what tuner this was? I am on a Stage 2 93 tune through Dizzy and my shit will get hot if I'm sitting still for too long. It worries me, because it's about 45 F degrees right now, and with summer coming up, it's only gonna get hotter.

Wesley at EMS. Is it a custom tune or a flash tune? Also what kind of thermostat do you have

 

[Chaboybrydyy]

It’s a flash tune. And I’m not sure yet. I’m hoping it has a195 in it so I can go to a 180, as I saw that was a recall.
