220 degrease on big cars and v8 engines 240 and over you are running hot
smaller v6 and v4s cars may run 180 to220 anything over that and your running hot
on average the temp of engine coolant gets from 220-260 before its lubircating and heat dissipating property's start to break down

Engine is Hot, Coolant is not HOThere engine is hot means above the engine operating temperature, Coolant is not hot means coolant in the radiator is not hot and the coolant is below or withing the operating temperature.i think there is no water blow out from the radiator cap if you have this problem then the following will not apply to your case.* water is not circulating through the radiator, either half of the pumped water is circulating through the radiator or another half circulates through the engine block because of thermostat. so please check the engine thermostat for proper function.

Actually, the heat regulator for the engine is the thermostat. It closes off the coolant when the engine is cold and circulates more coolant when the engine is hot.
How does the coolant reservoir work?

How do you add water to your car when it overheats?
Not a good idea to add water. You should add an engine coolant available from any auto parts store. You should never remove the radiator cap when engine is hot! Wait until the engine has cooled down then remove cap. Fill radiator with engine coolant, replace cap and then refill coolant reservoir. That procedure will get you to a garage where they will find out why it overheated in the first place.
Does the gauge that tells you if your engine is running hot have a fuse or sensor?

Where do you safely poor engine coolant into your 1999 ford ranger?
The reservoir has two level lines - one for "cold engine" and the other for "hot engine". If the engine is hot, and the coolant level is low, fill the reservoir to the "hot engine" level. When the engine is cold and the level is low, I usually" top off" the radiator and fill the reservoir to the "cold engine" level.
Why need auto radiator reservoir?
Engine coolant expands when heated. Heated coolant needs a reservoir to come and go as needed.
