Okay I let it warm up quite a while and when I drove it home after purchase it didn't get but about 1/4 inch off of where it starts. Also as I was sitting in it when I revved the engine I heard a gurgling sound every time. I'm of the opinion that the thermostat is bad also and that's a cheap easy fix. It's not getting anywhere near 195. One other thing, how would this thing sound with no mufflers?
