UPDATE
My engine appears to be running at between 100 - 103 Degrees when standing. The coolant fan is kicking in at around 104-105 degrees.
Most of my overheating issues where due to a faulty thermostat that has now been removed.
I will add additional antifreeze to bring the mixture to 50 /50 as I was short when I refilled it yesterday. (Currently around 30%)
Will the above range be acceptable without causing any damage to the engine?
The oil is around 80 degree from memory so no issue there.
