temperature gauge Question

[spunknik]

Q: At what position on the temperature gauge does everys fan cut in, I know all cars are different.

 

I changed my coolant, temperature sender switch and thermostat on my escort. Fan is cuttting in about 3/4 of the way up the gauge and wondered if that was right!!! I know it reads normal, but its alittle to high for my liking... Does anybody elses do the same?

 

 

Cheers spunknik....

Cheers fella, needed some re-assurance! Othercars ive had non ford read a lower temp b4 it kicks in. Thought my gauge may have been on the way out, Does your gauge stay up after you switch engine off?
