Just a general quick question. At what temp on the gauge should I be worried about overheating my Chim...at the moment in thick traffic it runs to about 85-87 and seems to steady out at this...Just wanted to know what temp should I get worried...?

They come on at about 80-85, sometimes difficult to hear them though over the engine...

At the moment though in no traffic it runs at 65-70...

I used to have an S2 and that ran a lot hotter than the Chim...

I have noticed a lot of people posting topics on running cold in this winter weather...Surely runnin g at 65-70 is optimum temp for a big old engine?
