Greetings all
I'm a little worried, and I am looking for guidance here. My 1997 4.3 runs at a temp of 200 when idling. Once I open up the throttle it will shoot down to 170. I replaced my impeller last season and the old one was in nice shape. So I don't think thats a issue. I am about ready to replace my thermostat.
I checked my maintenance guide and can't find recommend running temps. Is 200 normal idling temp or should I continue replacing the usual suspects.
Thanks for your assistance
