No matter how long i drive it doesn't come to normal running temperatures. I have had the truck for several years so i know how long it takes for the engine to heat up. It has been getting colder but not that cold. Today i started my truck with out door temps at about 30 F and drove to work. Mostly 60 mph for about 30 miles and the truck never hit normal temps. Specs- 4.0 V6 4X4 Edge Ranger 70,000 miles Plenty of Coolant Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thats the first thing i would check. -------------------------------------------------------- Your only as good as your tools! fatmanstan New User Oct 20, 2011, 8:56 AM Post #3 of 4 (2764 views) Re: Temp Issues with a 04 Ranger Sign In That was my first thought also but wouldn't it eventually be able to heat up or is the cooling system that efficient? Mr.scotty Enthusiast Oct 20, 2011, 1:02 PM Post #4 of 4 (2752 views) Re: Temp Issues with a 04 Ranger Sign In The cooling system will not come up to full operating temp if the thermostat is stuck open. It's a cheap enough thing to replace, I would just do it. Don't forget to get the seal for it too if it don't come with it. -------------------------------------------------------- Your only as good as your tools!   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
