Well i have a High Compresion KA24DE and it kinda have some heating problems.
it doesnt over heat but the tempatrue is kind high.
it is a little right above the middle mark.
I got a new water pump, new thermostate, and a electric fan and i have it on the hole time when i turn my car on.
i imagine that my car would run colder but nope.
i was guessing that the compresion is higher that the temp. would too but not sure.
if anybody can help me out i would apressiate it.
oh and i think the compresion on the car is like 10 1/2 : 1 or 11:1.

Lay off on the submit button, it only takes one time smart guy.
Secondly, get a real temp gauge, the OE one isn't going to tell you anything until it overheats completely. Midway on the gauge is anywhere between 150-250. Useless.

try going back to a clutch fan with a shroud. I had horrible luck with the electric.

The OEM temperature gauge is just a 3 step switch. It reads Lo/Med/Hi. Once it starts going towards the Hi side, you're already overheating.

HOLY PENTUPLE POST BATMAN!!!

easy on the trigger there champ! you made 5 identical threads!

How and Why are you running that high of compression? Check all your fluids as well, might be somthing simple. also, get a real guage like those 2 said. much more accurate. if you are running aftermarket internals, you should spend the money so you can properly monitor your modded engine. I would also get a EGT guage as well with that kinda compression

well would it be the radiator if only one of the hose is hot and the other is cool?

No.


Cold lower hose = closed thermostat. You've got an air pocket.
