Ok here is one for ya'll. When I'm driving down the highway to work, I usually do between 90 and 100 mph. I have noticed that the Nitro kind of surges from time to time. I was wondering if it's the govenor trying to kick in. At what speed does the govenor kick in?:confused: Here is another one. The temperature outside is about 100 degrees and my gauge in the cab says it's 92 degrees. Is there any way to reprogram this? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!

I would like to know what highway your driving on so i can have that commute! :smileup:
Well, I got my Nitro up to 113mph, And it just kept on going faster! :) It handles speed so well its amazing! But I had to slow when I saw brake lights!

As far as your thermostat goes maybe its being air cooled!:)

No but you can try a sensor check up, i did a write up on it here.
Good luck!

I found out why the temp was different. When I installed my F.O.D. screen to protect the radiator, I found a couple of huge locust around a sensor in the front. After I cleaned them off, the temp is correct now. LOL
