Pajero Jr. Engine Temp

[Arc Angel]

Hi All,

Recently aquired a Paj Jr.

Had a radiator leak, so changed it along with the fans. Now I have an annoying predicament:

The heat gauge on the Jr has a notch at the quarter mark, and nothing on the halfway point. The needle points to the normal slightly-below-half point, but I'm not sure if this is too high. Been preening through forums looking to see if the quarter mark is the normal temp point for this vehicle, but have not been able to ascertain this fact. Got an appointment with unimo next Monday, but I doubt my curiosity will allow me to survive that long.

Help…

pardon me for assuming that you'd understand I was reffering to the 'normal' point on MOST jap vehicles.

"has a notch at the quarter mark, and nothing on the halfway point. "

Half way point in a Japanese vehicle is normal.No need to panic.

Thanks Mini. I spoke to another guy who owns one, and he said he's doesnt go beyond the quarter point, hence the panic.

As mentioned no need to panic...half mark indicating is normal.What you can do ,simply connect to an OBDII and see.You can reconfirm the actual temp.Anyways if indicator shows beyond half mark,get your system checked.Till then play chill.
