Took the HC out for a drive after the coolant cap replacement and putting summer tires on. All continues to be normal...no leak, no overflow, no bubbling. Watching temp closely. Coolant up to 215-217 with stop and go and throttle bursts. Quickly down to 202-203 with fan at a brief stop. Does that seem normal? Ambient temp about 82°.

With a stock thermostat and fan settings yes, sounds normal to me
