Since the Temperature here is now around 80-85 I notice that the indicated temperatue creeps up whenever the car is subjected to long periods of idling at traffic lights with the AC on. Taking it out of gear and revving it up slightly to about 1200 rpm brings the temperature down right away untill the high speed fan cuts off. Both fans appears to be coming on as they should. I m thinking that the water pump might be worn and not putting out much flow at the low rpm. Or could the viscous fan clutch be the culprit ? Any ideas? Thanks Peter
