If there is any question about what is normal, I'd suggest subscribing to
the Jag-lovers XJS list - if they are anything like the E and XK lists, the
knowledge base out there is priceless.

Hi Kevin;
If that is 200 degrees fahrenheit with a 14 lb pressure rad cap, that
would be within normal operating limits for a modern engine. What does the
needle on the temp gauge show? Does the gauge show numbers or just a green
area?
Just a thought...........good luck.....Mike.
