I think you have a point. My current 5.3 reading is with the car not really warmed up (idling in the garage still on the lift, temp gauge somewhat below the 180 hash mark). I’ll make a run in it as soon as the weather clears and measure it when the car is really at true operating temp (like I do for camshaft devs).
I actually borrowed that one from someone else, I personally have this one:

That looks just like yours. Actually I think Amazon has changed the picture on me, as I think mine is *exactly* like yours.

I bet when you take it for a nice drive it will be within spec, I hope so anyway!
