    Hi guys, just seeking some help in few things with a VT V6, whats the normel driving temp sit on the dash while driveing?, what temp does the thrermos kick in as im worryed about mine as the temp sits between 1/4 and 1/2 and no thermo has started?, also where is the thermo trigger located on the motor?. I thought temp may have been cased by faulty thermostat so changed it for a new one and didnt chage a thing so thinking that the thermo switch is buggerd and no turning on. Eney way its a grate car and to good to destroy with a overheat so i came here and hope to get the help i need to get her feaver down, Thanks all and look forward to hereing from yous, Peter

    Between 1/4 and 1/2 is normal, the fans should cut in at 104 degrees. Do both fans operate when you turn on the A/C?
