normal temperature on a hot summer day
YES, 3/4 is NORMAL. Search that out. The dash Temp Gauge is like an idiot light with a needle. You need to use a scanner to see the actual temp to know what is going on.
Example: my H3 might show 1/2 on the dash gauge and the actual temp is 195F, your H3 might also show 1/2 on the gauge, but actually be at 200F. Another H3 might show 3/4 on the dash gauge and the actual temp is 205F. All pretty darn normal depending upon altitude, humidity, ambient heat and load.
If the engine is actually running this hot at 3/4 this can be a restriction in the radiator or engine causing a low flow of the cooling system which will then cause the engine to heat up like this when warmed up outside.You would want to have a complete coolant flush performed and the radiator checked to see if it needs to be replaced ( if it will not flush out and flow correctly).
Normally half is 195-205, then after that midway between 1/2 and 3/4 is 210-220 and 3/4 and above 220-237
