I see so 180 should be the lowest I should go, and with the 160 does that hurt the engine or does it just not let it heat properly

but in other news I think I am going to get the troyer e fan just as soon as I get a job


EDIT:

read into it and found out that it hurts performance and fuel milage by confusing the computer and causing the fuel mixture to run all screwy so it looks like I need to go to the dealer tomorrow and get a new one

Yes these truck run better and more efficiently at a higher temp.

And the Troyer fan is $125. cheaper.
If you do get one.It will come with 2 ways to mount it.
1- is the things that push through your rad.(you do not want to mount it that way!)
2- are metal brackets that go over the top and under the fans.(that is the best way to mount it).

Run a stock 192 T-stat or it may not go into closed loop - it will run super rich and get awful gas mileage. It's NOT like the old days!
