Hello all. Recently replaced thermostat in my 96 850 n/a and now it seems to run a little warm. Not level but a tad bit above level is this ok? I replaced the stock one with an autozone replacement which honestly seemed cheap (in terms of the construction). Any oppinions/ thoughts? Attached pic is of level

It might be okay, but mine is always in the three o'clock position.

the 2 to 3 o'clock area is normal operating temp.

I wouldn't worry, you're OK.
