Re: evin 150 1981 heat prob or not

Book says 125 & 163 heat sticks. Both should not melt after engine is running. Normally though, the touchy feely test should suffice. If you can keep your fingers on that flat area just forward of the heads, for several seconds while the engine is at idle, is farily accurate. This is about 140* or so. The t-stats are 143* stats.
