Hi all.

just wondering what temp the gauge should show.

Also should it hold solid at that temp or does it shift a little?

regards

 
When up to operating tt will usually run with the pointer between the 8 and 0 of 80°. It will move up slightly in hot weather in heavy traffic. The gauges always seem to under-read. These are the conditions for the cooling fans to kick in:

mine sits at 0-8 centre and in hot weather after a run and then stuck in traffic gets to just the right of 0.

So all OK then..
