So, the motor in my 2008 GT is stock and untouched except for a BBK CAI. I installed an Autometer Cobalt water temp gauge along with an oil psi and voltmeter. Yesterday, while cruising normally, I noticed a rather large temperature swing between the fan cut in and cut off temps. At a stop light, water temp will creep up to +/- 230F and then settle back in between 200F and 210F while cruising. In the world I come from (64-72 American muscle cars and 79-93 fox body mustangs) 230F is overheating or damn close to it. Ambient temperature was about 85F and relative humidity was about the same.
My question is, what is the stock setting for cooling fan cut in/cut off temps? Are the temps I'm seeing normal for this platform? Can these setpoints be adjusted with a tune? Thanks in advance for the help and I hope I've been clear.
