I had a question regarding this too and though ask here.
Just as the heat in Ca is starting to move away, a few strange things are starting to happen. Its intresting becuase during the days when it was 90F+ outside the xj would usually ride the 210 or a bit over it...But now the temp has gone down to 75F the xj wont even go above 160F on the highway. Once i am off the highway it goes up a bit but stays at ~170F at a signal , and once i get going it goes down to a few degrees.
I let it idle in my driveway today, and it did get to 210F but as i drove it , it went down.
Is this normal ?
Can the thermo be stuck open , even tho it gets to 210F.
