My oil temp gage reads in the middle between between 1/2 and 3/4.
During the hot months (all 9 of them) when I use A/C it hits right on the
3/4 mark and has gone higher. So what is considered normal?

Also the Oil level gauge is not very accurate either. If I turn the ignition
on, then off, then on again the levels with not correspond well.
