the temperature gauge has been swapped to an after market thing that only has numbers. at what temperature is it over heating and at what temperature is panic "turn it off now!" mode?

I think everyone miss understood my post. I know it's not over heating now. I wanted to know what temps i need to be watching for if it does over heat. and when to turn it off if I have to let it cool and run for a few blocks with only water or while it's leaking.

"after the next atomic bomb the only things left on earth will be dodge darts & cockroaches, the cockroaches will be driving the dodge darts.(presumeably /6 powered).Quote from comedy central. At the state fair a snake oil salesman added his concotion to the /6 oil on a test stand ran it a bit then drained it & kept the /6 running with no oil & it didn't blow. This post contributed nothing techwise to this thread but it is my cntribution for today.
