190 is fine. how are you checking temp, do you have a real gauge or just the stock deal?

anyways, i wouldnt worry unless it gets to 220 or 230

Overheating in Vancouver?
You have a problem. Cooling capacity or flow: condition of radiator and/or most likely an inoperative thermostat (stuck closed or only partially opening). Also confirm that your bottom radiator hose isn't collapsing.
