Chip, when it was running without the deflectors in hot outside conditions
the needle on the guage was at or just above the small red light on the
guage.  After I installed the deflectors the needle has never gone into
the area of the red light.  The highest I have seen it so far is just
touching the edge of the red light.  Best description I can give you.
Hope this helps.

Cheers

Frank
