I know that I am not in the dessert, but when is it recommended to switch to
the 160 degree thermostat? As I said the other day the temp of the car,
when driving in a 90 degree day was about 195. Here in Houston we should
hit the mid 90's later this week!
Also, when should I switch back to the 180 if I put the 160 in.
Thanks
Patton
