new motor wont cool down
So i got motor in and all. it starts, runs beautifully, and all gears work and 4x4. only thing now is it doesnt seem to cool down, iv let it warm up a few times but temp keeps going up. I have not let it get into the red cuz i dont want to blow it up obv.
I never installed the fan back on the truck, i was going to wire some electric ones after i got it running but at 12 degrees outside should it be having problems with heating?

it wont over heat w/o a t-stat, itll just run in open loop.
it does need a fully functioning t-stat, however, your problem 100% is that you have a radiator that is not able to transfer heat because there is no air flow- so definitely put the fan on man, no worries tho
if you really wanna test the theory run it down the road at 55 and see how it does

ya its a brand new Tstat but i did forget to test it. the last one i installed when i put the airgap on work nicely so i just didnt test the new one, bad idea i guess.
But ya a fan will be on this weekend, i was just hoping to have it work without a fan until i got an electric fan installed.
