[QUOTE="FordTechOne, post: 1673714, member: 35543"] If you have an overheat issue you will see it reflected in the temperature gauge. If the temperature increases outside the range of normal operation, a DTC will set. It sounds like you are monitoring Cylinder Heat Temperature (CHT), which is completely different than Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT). The purpose of the CHT sensor is to act as a backup for the ECT, since the ECT will not indicate an overheat condition in the event of substantial coolant loss. The CHT indicates the temperature of the cylinder head itself, not the coolant. For that reason it will read higher under load. The readings you're seeing are completely normal and nothing to be concerned about. [/QUOTE]
