there was a ? earlier on vacuum. Checked vacuum at idle is about 18, fluctuating just a little.
Temps of 180 @ cruise creeping to 200F at lights in the heat down here is pretty damn good. I wouldn't worry about that. If you want it lower try putting in a 160F stat. If it can keep temps at or around 160F then you have a great cooling system.
