That would kick on leaving your street if I came over with my truck.
My fan is wired to a switched 12v. Sitting in traffic in 100* heat I’ve seen 180* but it drops to the 160’s the moment I start moving.
Meh, key on for a warm climate. Bender was like that, worked good keeping the 700r4 alive.
It wouldn't hurt anything it would just run when it didn't need to. I think 150 is a very safe temp to run it at, and if the tempo climbs higher with the fan on, then it would of done it anyway.I've debated having mine come on as long as the truck is running if I add a fan.
Not sure what that would hurt
Little different on the Terminator, I'm not sure yet I can have it controlled by a temperature setting sense it doesn't have a thermister.
Guess I need to upgrade the ECU
Oredered a new trans filter and fluid along with a new o2, should I change the plugs? I guess I could pull them and check but they have 130 miles on them.
Messing with the software I can use line temp from the internal trans sensor and have it triggered with a custom I/OLittle different on the Terminator, I'm not sure yet I can have it controlled by a temperature setting sense it doesn't have a thermister.

Just check the plugs, if fouled, change them, if not run them
My thoughts but race truck
Yes, I'm triggering mine on the internal line temp sensor from the transmission as well. It's much warmer than the pan.
Ok, new gaskets ordered along with a new o2 and trans filter. I'm debating about buying a new steering column ready to drop in but I think a GM one is the way to go. Does anyone sell a refurbished column? The truck never came factory with a tilt and I want to add it in.
I put a Brother's Trucks tilt column in mine 7 years ago, no issues so far and it looks factory.
Doesn’t look like they offer them for a 82.
Actually gmt400 up till 94 or 95 is the same as the square.I was just about to pipe up and say "I have one I'd send ya!" Then remembered square not Gmt400 and felt dumblol
They changed when they put the vortec and put the cable shifter for the transmission
Yeah that's why I put 94 first because I think it was the last year. 95 might have been the change over so you might find both.Looks entirely different
Both my 95's matched the 96 that I have.
95 tbi, 95 6.5td, and 96 vortec 454
The dash changed at the same time too
