It takes that long to pressurize.
NO worries- just don't rev it and take off fast ..................... "Climate change is no longer science. It's politics... Climate change is also about power. Power to control.... It's about who gets to decide: how much energy we will have... where that energy will come from... what it will cost... It's about simulations, scenarios and monsters conjured up by computer models that should never be used to chart government policy -- especially on matters that will profoundly affect our livelihoods, living standards, life spans and dreams of a better future.

One more question, i didnt want to srart another thread, but where does your temp gauges stay at. Mine stays halfway and tends to go alittle pass the 1/2 way. I know it probaly doesnt help having the original T-stat and coolent. The previous owners never did a thing with this truck.

Mine stays about halfway on warm days.
On cold days it stays below halfway. When I run the heater it runs a little above half way. I have an '89 Nissan Hardbody King Cab with a Chevy truck/Blazer 4" suspension lift and 3" body lift. It will soon have a TBI 350, SM-465 4 speed trans and 208 T-case rounded off with 39" tires. |

Both of my HB trucks run at the 1/4 mark. If your needle it's close to the 1/2 way mark your t-stat is probably wearing out.

or it may be a higher degree t-stat which still should be changed

Are the T-stats difficult to change out on the 2.4l? I changed one out on My Firebird before but it looks like a pain to get at on the HB. As i do this it probally wouldnt hurt to put some fresh fluid in there.

I think the 4cyl is easy compared to the V6.

The one I have in is like new condition. When I put it in last year, it has run the same since I installed it. I have an '89 Nissan Hardbody King Cab with a Chevy truck/Blazer 4" suspension lift and 3" body lift. It will soon have a TBI 350, SM-465 4 speed trans and 208 T-case rounded off with 39" tires. |

I have a an '89 Pathy V6 (very similar to the hb as we all know)b4 my radiator went bad it kept between 1/2 and 3/4 on hot days (75f+)and about 1/2 on cold days(40f-50f) and about 1/4 below 30f. My replacement was an aulminum radiator w/ plastic cap and base(sill wonder how durable that will be) and temps rarely went over 1/2. but in the winter, below 30f here it takes too long to reach a good op temp (stays @ the bottom line) and as a result my mpg suffers.
so if you live in a place where it gets cold and you need to replace radiator try to find a steel one or thow a blanket over your grill w/ the aluminum one. =================================== mostly stock(for now) '89 Pathfinder XE over 212k and running good!
