[QUOTE="Riddick, post: 16389372, member: 143188"] I made an appointment and took my truck in yesterday. The dealer states when the tech drove the truck the temps never rose above 210 and everything is operating as it should. When I first bought the truck the first thing I did was removed the grill shutters for the intercooler. Ford has these programmed to open only under WOT or extremely high IATs. The tech noticed mine were missing and says if I am running hotter its because I removed them, such BS. All I am doing is allowing the AIR to AIR intercooler to have air going over it all time, how this causes my truck to run hotter I will never know. I guess ill be doing some more troubleshooting on my own. Plan is to use a IR thermometer and compare inlet and outlet temps on the radiator. Also, I will use HP tuners and pull the stock tune and see when the fans are programmed to come on. I am guessing its 220-225, since mine are always on even with the a/c off. [/QUOTE]
