So. It didn't overheat did it? Shutting off the engine will cause the temp to rise. Especially if you have a leak or a bad radiator cap. You loose pressure and the boiling point goes down. 230° isn't boiling with a 15# cap. it's closer to 257°.
It didn't boil over and the cap didn't leak and when I drove on after an hour it seemed perfectly fine. This engine is bran new with about 500 miles on it and cost about 12 grand...Canada..So this is why I'm freaking out a bit
