Lots of stuff in the archives.  I replaced my gauge with one that actually tell the temp instead of just letting me guess.

And my car ALWAYS ran hot until I put the front spoiler on.  I think it looks like crap and I smashed it a bunch of times until it fell apart.  But it made a HUGE difference in cooling.

Since I didn't like the spoiler - I made my own.  I took a 1/4 sheet of plywood, cut to fit, covered with epoxy and painted it black.  it sticks out jut 4" and works just as well as the monster spoiler.  I did hit a curb but it's easy (and cheap) to replace.
