What is the normal operating temperature for a Chevy s-10 2.2 liter engine?

The normal operating temperature for a Chevy S-10 with a 2.2L engine is between 195°F and 220°F (90°C and 104°C). However, a reading slightly below or above this range isn't necessarily a cause for immediate concern, as ambient temperature and driving conditions can influence the exact temperature. If the temperature consistently stays outside this range, particularly if it's significantly higher or lower, then you should investigate the cause.
