Just normal use, will never see a track. Not monitoring it with anything, just my gut feeling ! My Saph and my 7 series (I know completely different kettles of fish) seem to take ages to warm up or get up to temperature but my van (just an Escort 1600cvh) seems to be up to temperature within like 30 seconds of being started up ! It never overheats and the old fan used to cut it and cool the engine as it should, it just always seemed extra hot to me !........ but thanks to everyone for the advice, I'll stick to getting it wired up properly !
