That is nearly impossible if you have some flow. My 525SC had around 1-3psi at idle and 20psi at WOT First thing to do it verify that the gauge is working and the hose to it is not clogged. Where is the hose connected?? If its at a block drain, its probably clogged in the first few inches or it has a kink somewhere |

Yeah, I'll double check.I'll probably just get a new Gage and double check, How would I go about clearing out that line if it is blocked,

What else could cause my high temp alarm to go off, When the gauge reads normal
|
Perhaps the temp switch is faulty or the gauge is reading incorrect? Have you had a chance to verify the actual engine temp with an IR temp gun?

Id bet you have no water issues, but a switch issue. If I recall correctly that is a 190* switch, next time shoot the thermostat housing with a IR temp gun and verify your 140* water temp. If your gauge is accurate, then replace the over temp warning switch. |

not yet. Headers were really cold to the touch as well, if that means anything. Almost like it feels all the water is going to the headers and not through the block
easy way too,take it apart and switch positions of the brass collar and thermostat. |
