So it just tells you to not base everything on the "all important" temperature. If anything, just make sure you see lots of smoke coming out of the exhaust and a normal idle, then you are safe from ruining your motor.
I would have figured you know that...
Read the first sentence of my last post again... The first word is "True"... I also said Joe racer/the average Joe... ie.. He may not have the best tune on is motor and at 300* may blow/wash out his motor... I thought I made myself very clear... Every motor is not the same and while one may run great at 300* another may have top performance at 250*... I know I made myself clear on that... If you think not, then go back and read it again... Read the post you wish to commit on clearly before you choose to stick you foot in your mouth. I would have figured you knew that as well... .02
