KR, 3800 series 1
My fiero runs alittle hot, It normally runs around 220. When it is around 220 if I go to WOT I start to hear a loud clicking from the engine??? would this problem be caused by KR? I put a Gtech and tried it out when the "clicking starts HP drops tremendous. Any Ideas
I have a 93 3800sc with a 94 sc and 70mm TB with the 2.5" 93 pulley. 2 heat range colder NGK plugs. ANy help? I am guessing most will say lowe rtemp thermostat. Anything else????
DO you think it is KR is even the prob? When engine is cold it is not an issue.

my dads 93 SE is stock everything, including the 195 stat, and his gauge never moves past 200 mark, even if we are towing crap around and uphills
