    I thought the thermostat is around 82 degrees C, but there are companies that sell units that open at 77. More research is needed before you get the correct answer, sorry.

    According to manual opens at 76.6 and is fully open at 90 degrees. I suppose I should check thermostat specs. It sits at 66-68 dgrees once warmed up and at idle, havent taken it down road yet (no reg). Thanks mate.

    You would expect the temp to rise when the engine is under load, especially while off road or city driving where there is bugger all air flowing through the radiator.
