About 1/3 normally. Any more and I put my fan on. altho I usually drive with window open and heater off but on 'hot' to clear some engine bay heat. Also serves to warn you if it goes cold you have a water air-lock/ no water in the header

aint used mine in ages and seems to be hot, about half way just cruising along (has been hot weather too though ) and about 3/4 when on the loud pedal, running a pace rad i thought would bring it down quite a bit?
