That's one of those goofy stories you put in a car magazine, which I haven't actually seen in years now.

It never occurred to me either basically because the gauge was working normally except for taking a little longer to come up to temperature than I thought was normal, and only got real hot when I went above 3000RPM so I was thinking I had an engine problem. As soon as I bought the speed down to 3000 RPM or lower, the temp would come back down to 180 deg
