KOYO Radiatior problems?
I purchased a Koyo radiator from Dezod awhile back. I had been meening to ask this question but I always forget about it. When the stock radiator was installed the temp gauge would slowly rise to running temperature (i'm sure you are all aware.) Since the Koyo radiator has been installed the temp gauge rises a helluva lot faster. It has never overheated and the gauge always stays at or a lil below what the stock setup would. Is this a problem or something that I should look out for. It doesnt seem normal. Any ideas?
I need TP for my bunghole

Try Evan's waterless cooling fluid for better heat reduction

This product was recomended in a old issue of super street magazine in a cooling system article.

Rep Power: 323 the aluminum body warms up faster than the plastic body of the stock one. warming up fast is a good thing for your engine. It now gets to its optimal running temp faster. this equals less wear. as long as its not overheating don't worry about it.
