Mike, If your D reaches 220, I bet your fans are NOT coming on. Check your fan diode located in the relay comparment. My D never gets above 150 on the gage. When it warms up I can hear the fans cut in and watch the temp gage drop 5-10 degrees and then they cut out. Michel Poulin wrote: > Over the weekend my friend and I put 300 miles on the D.
