Thats weird. If we're talking about the Druck Press, I have an '84 with considerably higher readings. It has 178,000 miles with no major engine work done as far as I know. The mechanic just did a compression test and all checked out fine (I think the numbers where between 135-155). The Druck Press wasn't working for quite some time I was told (I bought the car a month ago) and I just fixed it a week ago (the wire under the shrink wrap came off the sending unit).
cold idle @ 3.5-4
warm idle @ 2.2-3.2
Whenever I check the gauge at speed it reads @4.2-4.9, although I'm usually at around 3k rpms. The temp gauge needle always stays just below the first SMALL (skinny) white line and in bad traffic it creeps up to just above the white line.
