It is running. At these temperatures it is pretty audible.

So, I drive somewhere and it is 104 F outside, sun (now now as its winter outside). If I happen to drive through a traffic jam, i see the temperature go from middle position almost to the red. Then, usually i look for a place to get off the traffic to drive faster to cool it down and it helps. Could it be the coolant? Should i change it per season? I know it doesn’t leak.

Thanks.

One down, several still to go.
One more thing. Is it normal for engine to heat up to red while still and idling in the 104.00ºF sun?
I am not very car savvy, sorry, but I am learning.
I just love the beast in spite of it’s imperfections. All computers now not real mechanics around to learn from.
