Yeah I saw that in a few spots. Didn't know if there was something that shows what Ford says is solid operating temp.
I know on the GT350 they say not to run full out till engine oil temp is at least 190 I think, but I think the safety in the system is 180 on the 350.
There seems to be nothing in the GT500 manual with that info.
I wonder if there is something telling the system the car is not seeing enough temp at startup based on other factors or too much temp at startup based on other factors in the tranny or rear or somewhere?
My issue seems to be on cool startup after the car has run for a while but not run hard at all, then sits for 10-15 minutes and then starts up again in cool weather.
Again I heard on the 350 that a check engine would get thrown if coolant temp did not get hot enough after a period of time or after oil came up to a certain temp. I think Ford did a ECU Flash to correct a code getting thrown too quickly in that instance (I think just 2016s and earlier).
