After my two short trips yesterday evening and this afternoon ( very old tires & master cylinder stopped me from a longer trip), I noticed that I have to get 'my head around' the fact that the temp gauge on the dash is no Water temperature gauge, but an Oil temp gauge...
Af first, I was under the impression that the gauge didn't work - until I realised that the oil isn't heating as quick as a cylinder head & coolant! (
But that leaves me with one question: what to expect? I know that this sort of gauges isn't really rocket science, so that most gauges aren't very precise. Taken that in consideration, what's a normal operating temperature/ the correct position of the needle?
Thanks in advance!
