'86 944 NA

Sheesh - here's a graphic - my needle move up steadily from cold. When warm, it stays in the blue range. It's never gotten into the top 1/3rd though.

Drv. side fan seems to be on all the time on low speed (it turns 1-2 min. after shutdown). Sometimes when I sit idling, it kicks to high speed and the pass. fan then kicks in at high speed.

Is this in the normal range?
