I just rebuilt my 1990 force 150 hp engine. The temperature buzzer was shot so I put a temp gauge on. What is the normal temperature range for a good running engine? I am assuming if I go above 160F things will not be good.

Re: Force 150 HP Operating temperature

would this be the same ideal temp for a 1989 85 horsepower force? and if so could you pinpoint a place that i could buy a guage from? ive been looking all over and none of them are sensitive enough
