Message	on what the optimum coolant temperature for the engine. Have you ever noticed in cold winter time you get less gas mileage than summer time. The engine is in the winter time is not able to reach its optimum temp because of the out side weather and the mechanical fan is still cooling. A side from different fuel blends. Heat is power in the engine combustion chamber. If your chamber is too cold it will rob power .
