My temp was about the same. What do you consider fully warmed? It would take a very good while before I can get the needle half way.

I normally flog it when it's above 200F
One tick to the left of 250 is when I start to flog it. But when the fan comes on full blast, the temp is NEVER at 250 so it caught my eye. How could the fan be on full blast when engine temp barely at operating temp? So I knew at that point something was up. Oh and dead throttle
