From Dogbunnys classified ad I see there are lots of folks running his excellent replacement dipstick. A few are posting running temps.
I was hoping a few more would post what temps they are seeing.
The varibles are going to be many, and I haven't found any 2 650's that run exactly the same. I think Will has found the same with his testing.
What temps are you seeing?
In what conditions?
And what do you think are the causes of the high temps?
Myself, as the weather warms to the high 80's with moderate to high humidity,
am seeing a top temp of 285, almost pegged out.
Unlike some my temps rise at the lights after a 30 mile 4.5-5K ride.
Cruising I am seeing 255-270.
Thanks to the perfect indexing I can check it as I pass under the street lamps after midnight. Ambient temps run 20-30 degrees cooler on the return trip. But under the last lamp I am still seeing close to 220.
Dogbunny I will post the comparision between the candy thermometer and your piece later(tomorrow). Also will pull the plugs to check lean condition.
