Yikes, that's about 235 and the hot weather is not here yet. Need to verify that temp and if it's for real, it's time for some complete cooling system maintenance.

Yea how would I see what it's truly reading? Don't they make some type of thermometer thing that u can stick to the radiator hose and will that see the temp? Or should I install a mechanical gauge? And my fan still hasn't kicked on yet... :/

I'd suggest one of those infrared point-n-shoot temp guns (pointed at the t-stat cover)....handy as a pocket on a shirt, use it for all kinds of things and now days they're cheap.
