Mn triton heating up since xrox

Postby mnbrodie on Mon Feb 14, 2022 1:25 pm

I did search but couldn’t find what I’m looking for

I have a 2010 mn triton auto. I recently put on a xrox bullbar winch and 9inch spotlights. Since I have done all that now when I go up a long steep hill the temperature will creep up past half way where it normally sits. If I back off the throttle while going up the hill the temp will cool down. I never had any problem to all the gear was put on even towing boats etc. I’ve just in the process off making a mesh grill to help increase airflow and I might even have to go smaller spot lights. Has anyone else had similar problems after bullbar etc and what was your fix?

Thanks

You have blocked all your airflow that is supposed to be going through your radiator.

I took the grill off today and took it up the same hill that made the car heat up yesterday and it was fine. I cut the grill out and going to put mesh over it so that might be better. But hopefully if I drop down to smaller lights that might help to
