On my 97 base, and now that it is warming up outside (mid-80's to mid 90's) here in Virginia, I have noticed that the temp gauge after idling awhile at a light will creep by the "0" on the "180" number. It has not gone though the last white hash mark however. The manual just says drive unless the light comes on, but I was wondering what is considered normal. Also, I have never heard the engine cooling fan come on. I assume that is because it is not hot enough.

Thanks.
