Default Running temps, Australian 409

Thanks for all the help on the cooling matter. In 42C yesterday, with a
brisk drive that included uphill, the gauge just got to under the 100
marker, but no sign or sounds of the of gurgling you can get and at
tickover, no noticable rise over that. Few people were out in modern cars
here yesterday!
I will look at the webosite for the other items.
Has anyone used the new Liquid intelligence coolant? I know it has a boiling
point of 190C and just allowing the engine to get hotter than it's intended
range is not a good thing. No price given on any of their data.
Thanks
Mike O
