I tested mine wth my wifes cooking thermometer ( dont tell her). Mine was running about 175 degrees F.
I let it idle untill it got hot with the thermometer in the top hose T neck on the engine where the cap normally screws on.

185-190
set the fan at 190-195. you want it on as less as possible.
you can't get it any cooler then 185 as the engine thermostat will be closed. so you are just wasting power to the fan.
