Today it got up to 100* here. A first while owning the LSS. I don't know if the high speed fans are not doing thier jobs cause I damn near overheated. Probably hit 240* for a good 5 minutes while cruising gentily on the highway. I have a 180* T-stat and there is coolant in the resivior. Abeit there is a good cup or so less than a month ago. Maybe time for a flush?

Sounds like you could be getting to that flush time. Always a good precation also. I just drove 132 miles straight from Marty'* house and I never got hotter than 189.8 on my scan tool. I had my high speed fans on the whole way home too.

I thought I would get hypothermia.
Yeah, my car was running hot too. According to the bank clock when I ran up and got laundry detergent it was 102*.
I have an IV line hooked up to a bottle of ice cold water. J/K but I wish I did -I feel like toast and I've hardly even been in the sun.
And my A/C Compressor started on fire after you left Nate. I started the car to pull it around back so it wasn't blocking the driveway and by the time I parked it out back it was on fire. I remembered dad had a fire extinguisher in the 56 Oldsmobile two cars away so I grabbed it and had the fire out before any damage was done outside the A/C compressor.

How did it catch fire in the like 50 yds you moved it?
