Since i went premix my car started getting hotter!
hey guys somehow the engine is getting hotter... after the premix and about 40-50 miles the engine gets a bout half way hot. When i ha dthe oil metering system it was always below the 25% mark but now its always between the 25% and 50%.. their is smoke coming from the bottom of the alternator... headers maybe??? i don't know but somehow is getting hotter. could it be that it has a 70% water 30% coolant??this has never happened before.. i know that maybe one of my coolant seasls might be broken ( but it was like taht about 5 months ago.. and still it never got that hot ) half way hot? with driving only 40-50 miles changing gears at 3-4k rpms??

ive run premix in several sevens and have had nothing short of success. I agree with sonicrat try the coolant hose running on top of the block into the back of the water pump.
