Rick, Don't worry be happy!!! The fans kick in at 200 deg., take a magic
marker and mark on your gauge when thay come on, this way you will know.
the gauge should be around the N a bit befor or after. When you get to
the H you are at 220- 230.   Have fun, whats up with the cyl. that is
burnning oil?     Glenn
