Whats the temp outside and where are you measuring the temp from? But yes the temp will jump after a few burn outs and while 210 is warm its not excessively high the 180 in stop and go is also fine

That sounds fine over all. When I ask about gauge hwere does it take its reading, If it takes it from the pressure port it will be a little higher than the real average temp

Still the temps are reasonable , With a larger cooler you could go lower. But there is not danger in the range your in
