Learning a little more about transmissions lately. I was wondering what is the normal operating temps of our stock trans, checking the temp from the pan. Example I'm not super good with wording often when typing but what would be the normal temp the trans should be at. I understand if the trans is to cool it will the radiator will keep it at a certain temp. I was wondering the upper range. I was seeing about 190 degrees this week on a long trip back from the lake. If I turned on my trans fan the temp stayed at 190. That made me think the trans didn't want to run less the 190.
Btw, I have the trans running thru the radiator into two coolers, one having a fan that I can turn on that pushes air. I use currently the stock pan.
