is there anyway can control thermostat open timing?
No.
Thermostat is a mechanical part. You choose what temp thermostat you want to run.
thanks.
i checked thermostat. it works by heat coil, heat coil push wax type.
so i guess ecm control heat coil timing..
No... the ECM controls fan turn-on temps (Electric fans only). There is no such heat coil timing. The thermostat opens with coolant temperature. If you have a 180 degree thermostat, the thermostat will open when the engine coolant temp reaches 180 degrees.Quote:

No point in changing the fan temps now. I know 105c Is over 212F. Install a 82c or 71c thermostat and then set the fans 5c higher than the thermostat tempQuote:
