[QUOTE="tongsatriani, post: 130084, member: 1356"] Hahaha.... :D Fault diagnosed! Why my temp reach 3/4? Here is the verdict: 1. Fan clutch was perfect. Speed as per RPM So, it's either thermostat or water pump. It's the former! RM 45 for a "V" brand thingy, Made In France with sensitivity of 70-75 degrees. All this while my temp gauge reads slightly after 1/2. Right after changing, it reads a lot slight below 1/2! Chun huh?! Hmmm...you may wonder why I thought it's the thermo? Coz it's the cheapest to change! Something like fixing from bottom lor... The old thermo is definitely faulty as the spring can't even be pressed down. There goes another Temperature story... [b]THE END[/b] :D [/QUOTE]
