Re: [ST] Adjustable Temperature gauge?



I wrote about this a while ago, too. I haven't seen the needle go past
1/4 yet. Although I got stuck in traffic here in SoCal a couple of
times (we CAN split lanes) the fan has come on only a few times, never
more than 30 sec at a time. Wonder how others compare. Mine is also a
2001 ST.
