engine runs cool

sirrock4 Junior Member National RV Owners Club Join Date: Sep 2011 Posts: 7	My 2001 Tradewinds has a 330 cat. On a recent trip I noticed the engine temp was running very cool. I have read that the side mounted radiator engines run cooler but I just wonder if I have something to worry about. __________________

toadog Senior Member National RV Owners Club Ford Super Duty Owner Join Date: Jun 2011 Location: Snohomish ,WA Posts: 234	Hi sirrock4, I just got back from a trip with the same problem , I have a 460 ford , a cat will want to run warm so that the oil will work right . I am going to replace my thermostat , because if wants to stick open it may stick closed. I assume that it is running cooler than normal. Bob Bazley __________________
