86 oil temp gauge temps?

[cgarr]

My new (to me) 86 3.2 has a oil temp gauge without numbers on it. First mark, second mark, then red, mine just makes it up to the first mark sometimes, when I probe the oil its around 180 to 190, is this what the first mark is? whats the second mark temp?

Thanks

Note that your gauge should have temp marks- use a flashlight & peer in at an angle to the left of the tick marks.
