Default Running hot?

I noticed soon after i purchased my 95 if i was sitting at idle the temp gauge would go up about 3/4 on the gauge before the e-fan would kick on. The e-fan would bring the temp about 1/2 on the gauge and then shut off. I have no problems while driving as it only gets to about 1/4 up on the gauge which i would assume is about normal. It will stay the same if i am driving (outside temp 80-100) Do you guys have the same fluctuation when stopped with a 195 stat?

Sounds ok then. I'm not sure why the motor would get near the 240 range before the fan would kick on though. Is it a one speed e-fan?

i couldnt tell you on that one, all i can say is if it aint broke then dont worry about it. just keep an eye on it and if you feel that uncomfortable with it get a lower thermostat or put ur fan on a switch. like i said ive had no problems with it this far..maybe someone else has some better input on this than me tho

Nice. I was thinking something may be wrong. Still wondering about the fan speeds though. I'll see what i can find.
