Every day I drive 30 miles to work. Every freeway in Fort Worth is under construction that'll last another 2 years. Now the air temperature is hitting 102.
My speed is 50 mph most of the time. Will the motor run cooler by shifting up a gear with rpm at 2200 and depend on outside air flow over the motor?? Or will the fan provide better cooling than outside air flow by downshifting to maintain 3000 rpm?
Anyone who knows or can test this who has a cyl temp gauge?
4 cyl 2.0
Thanks all
