Thanks for the link to the other thread, my friend. Good stuff and I appreciate your helping the newbie (me).
I've been curious about the 'missing' engine fan since the first time I popped the hood on the JK.
I learned about the 'steady state' gauges through water cooled motorcycles. They are the industry norm now. My '96 XJ Cherokee would track the temperature through the thermostat opening and any 10-15˚ change. Not these gauges: all "normal" over about a hundred degree spread.

As you know, though, once it reaches operating temp, the computer doesn't allow the needle to move as long as the temp remains in a safe range.
