Re: Max operating temp.

Don't think there is on, as the water is constantly being replaced with fresh cool water.<br /><br />The NAPA parts cataqlog lists a 120* thermostat for that year/model.<br /><br />Exterior head temp spec may be available in a service manual, think it should be about 140* max.
