oh and checkout how hot it was at night time i was sweating the whole day there were even signs in the city saying (turn off A/C to prevent overheating).my uncles neighbor even had a lil pool inside his garage cuz it was so hot outside and 120 degrees is nothing for them haha he said when he comes down to pomona that he feels really cold

if your needle moved from the 'normal' position then you were over 230F which is too hot for your motor if you want it to live long ......
