my 7 has a fever...

so my 87 na rx7 is running hotter than it normally does. its running with the needle at the 1/2 way mark in my temp.

i just changed the radiator to a koyo aluminum,new uper and lower rad hoses, new fluid, thermostat and rad cap like 4 months old.

i did not put my fan shroud back on, they forgot to send the mounting kit with the rad, and i havent had time to put it back on.

could my fan shroud not being on cause my car to run hotter?
