        x2 on the 210 at idle....get yourself a 160/180 thermo and a manual fan switch to keep things running cool, they work wonders for me

            210 x3. Then your fans should kick on. Could be a faulty temp sender also if your getting weird temps

              If it is stock with the stock thermo, the fans are set for 221 to 230 to kick on and the thermo is 195. So it will get pretty warm. This is why peolple put in 160 to 180 thermos and redo their fan temps.
