190F
The normal operating temperature for a 1997 Pontiac Sunfire with a 2.2 L engine typically ranges between 195°F to 220°F (90°C to 104°C). Maintaining this temperature is crucial for optimal engine performance and efficiency. If the engine temperature consistently exceeds this range, it may indicate cooling system issues or other mechanical problems. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific guidelines.
About 185F.
Nothing as long as it is within normal operating range Gauges are just and indicator--not gospel

The temperature gauge in a Pontiac Sunfire with a 2.2L engine typically indicates the engine coolant temperature. It should read within the normal operating range when the engine is warm, usually between 180°F and 220°F (82°C to 104°C). If the gauge reads too low, it may indicate a thermostat issue, while a reading in the red zone suggests overheating. Always refer to the vehicle's manual for specific details regarding the gauge and normal operating conditions.
Open drain plug at lower end of radiator Run engine to Normal operating temperature with heater on -no higher When draining stops -- close drain plug Refill radiator slowly to prevent system from becoming "airbound" Start vehicle - bring up to normal operating temperature with heater and re-check coolant level
The normal operating temperature for a 2001 Pontiac Sunfire typically ranges between 195°F to 220°F (90°C to 104°C). The engine's thermostat usually opens around 195°F to allow coolant to flow and maintain optimal engine temperature. It's important to monitor the temperature gauge while driving to ensure it stays within this range to prevent overheating. If the temperature consistently exceeds this range, it may indicate a cooling system issue.
Around 90-100C or 195-210F, if it's running any warmer than that try doing a coolant flush
