Hello, just a quick question to help figure something out. I have a 92 200 johnson gt and i am more used to automotive engines than outboard engines. I have an outboard temp guage and a water pressure guage installed. Is the temp guage on an outboard supposed to work like an automotive temp guage, because mine goes up and down from extreme to extreme depending on my rpm. The impeller and water pump were replaced last year as were the thermostats. Now an automotive engine gets to operating temp and then stays relatively at the same temperature. Mine outboard temp will range from way up by the warning for hot when i idle for a while and then run all of the way down to cold when i am running on plane. Is is supposed to do this? If not, what should i look at? thanks, <br />Steve
