don't know anything about these itty bitty lil trucks, so I'm on a learning curve! Mine is a 2001 carry, already lifted and got the mud tires etc. runs nice, only thing so far I noticed, is when running the temp needle will be mid range and then drop right down to nothing when i'm moving fast. its cold here, alittle below freezing out. is this normal for these really small engines with big rads? Or maybe thermostat no good? any advise anyone?
I had a similer problem wit my 1993 carry.turned out the previus owner tok out the thermostat. Put a new one in, and viola, problem solve temperature stay steady even at -25 ". Yours is probably partially stuck open. Good luck.
thanks for your input, I suspect a bad thermostat..where is the housing located and any suggestions on how to access it the easiest?
