Well, a couple weeks ago, I found this little gem at Home Depot for $30 (US).
Today, after a long run about town, with ambient temps in the high 80s, I returned home, and "lased" a series of temp measurements. For your consideration, here they are (all temps are F):
Oil on dipstick: 182
Bottom of oilpan: 185
1st Cat over ~12in: 300-520
Cyl H adj to exhaust ports: 285-291
Hyb Invrtr Coolant Rsvr: 140 (could see flowing fluid)
ICE coolant ovflo 138
Flng @ coolnt exit blk: 178
Baffle in oil filler 205
Deep in filler 197
Brake fluid res 160
Wndshld wash fld res 120
FWIW, this is after several errands about town, to the tune of about 17.5 miles.
Thoughts?
