New here.
Hi there,
I’m Paul and I’m from the Netherlands.
Last week i bought my first V8 ever. I’m new to American cars and i have a lot to learn.
I bought a 1978 Thunderbird. It’s a basic model with only a leader inside as a extra option. It has a 351M 5,8 engine and it runs on LPG.
It has a few points that’s needs attention. First the electric wiring. Not all things work like they are supposed to. The inside fan has only one speed and does not do much. And the left turn signal stays on, it’s not blinking.
It’s a good hard car with hardly any rust on it. It does need a paintjob because the previous owner had sprayed it with a can.
For now i don’t care but it’s something i have to do when all other things are done and when i have saved enough money.
But the first thing i have to check is the engine temperature.
After a half hour on the highway its almost in the red zone. I don’t know if that is normal for this car.
So that’s my first question here.
What’s the normal engine temperature for my car driving on the highway?
Regards,
Paul
