I have a Switch Pitch transmission, switch is set in the "high range" or normal range, Ragusa finned pan, auxiliary cooler that is not connected to the radiator, 60mph, 80 degree ambient temperature.

Want to make sense of the Art Carr temp gauge.

Was running about 220 when moving, was approaching 260 in stop and go traffic. 260 is the bottom of the red, but was mostly running at the bottom of the yellow when moving.
