Heavens. Then I suppose that mine is not in proper working order. It was 97° here today, one of the hottest days we have had this year, so I was interested to see how high the gauge would go today. I did not even have my A/C on and it went to 3/4 way up on the scale. I do not even care anymore... what, with the stalling when the engine heats up and the not knowing when the timing chains were replaced and the worn camshaft, I will just drive it as long as it will go. I have already got my $1000.°° worth out of it.

I am guessing that my radiator may be clogged, since someone has been using "GREEN" coolant in the cooling system.

These cars should never run over 100C if the cooling system is in shape.
