Drove the car for about 10 mins, let it idle for another 5 minutes, reached 210, and sits at 210. If i turn the car off, the car does not cycle its water, and temps were record at around 215-220 while off, it cools down to about 180 after 10-15 mins.
Btw the gauge reads the same as my temp gun.
Should be getting timing gun in the next few days, will measure the timing to see whether i am too adv or reta., or neither.

looks normal... temp will rise with no flow.
Is this with your fan on constant? Should be more than a 6 degree drop through the radiator.
