Normal for the gauge. King Seeley gauges used in IHC all read "hot' when not powered.

I think the temperature gauge is acting like a side-line coach. It is telling the engine, "Come on, you can do it."
I would rather have tools I do not need than to need tools I do not have
Thinking risks being controversial and possibly being offensive
