3.1 Operating temp?
Whats the normal operating temp for a 3.1 gm engine?

It's been warmer out lately and my 90 cavalier's temp gauge has been going half way up the scale instead of 1/4 like it was during winter.

hmm. 195. It was getting up to 220 the other day, then the fans would kick in and it would go down.

That's the same day I topped up the coolant too.
