Maybe, there's a temp sensor for your gauge and and a coolant temp sensor for the ECU. So I call it the ECU temp sensor.
I had the stock cam before I swapped. I was having a cold start problem and it was the thermo time switch. Just because it ohms out doesn't mean it's good. I'd pull it back out and clean it up as well as check the connector going to it.
OK, I'll check both out.
I believe you commented on your 261C in earlier posts here, so would you choose this cam again? What does your butt dyno say about it?
Most of the people I've read about or spoke to made their cam change during a rebuild, so the actual "change" in performance between camshaft profiles is difficult to determine. As I mentioned, I am planning to do some cam swaps after this engine is completely broken in, tuned, and running like I think it should, so I can "feel", and possibly chassis dyno, the results of the change.
One thing with this cam that I'm not happy about is the fact that 6 of the lobes are misaligned to the rockers - off by as much as .100". I don't believe it's the rocker rack, but I have not verified that. It may be just lack of quality control during the casting of the camshaft? I am curious if you have noticed this with your 261C? Next time you have the rocker cover off, would you mind checking out the alignment and letting me know.
I'll check the alignment of the valve stem to valve lash bolt and post some photos.
Thanks.
