LOL! Please. When it gets to the highest tick mark, the temperature is around 250. My car has seen that a couple times when I was dealing with massive air pockets. (Still am til I seal off a leak, but w/e).

At the position you mention, and from my vast experience with coolant temperature monitoring, it's likely 210-215, not a big deal. The 3400's thermostat is a 195, thus the car will actually run 205-210ish.. Like my 180 thermostat on my engine, the car runs 190ish normally.

Seriously, no need to freak out and turn off the car once you trek beyond the half mark. Think about it when it's past the 3/4 mark.

If they look the same, they are the same, as far as I've experienced. And I've done a lot of relay work at the Zone back in the day.
