Reply to "Overheating problems with my Pantera"

Keep in mind the the stock Pantera temperature gauge often lies about the temp it sees; don't believe everything your gauges tell you unless they've been correctly calibrated.

There's a large number of things that affect the gauge reading: water level, which gauge and sender combination, sender placement, etc. If its not spitting coolant, the engine is not too hot and you need not worry.

If it is spitting coolant, first thing I'd check is to make sure your cooling system has been bled properly. Air in your cooling system will certainly cause your car to overheat.
