Hi mate, see my post "coolant operating temperature" hopefully will answer your question

Overall should be 90 degrees or there abouts

If the engine holds 84-degrees once hot, it is obviously on the low side, but if it drops back to say 80 - 82 on a very light load, then a sure sign it is past its best.
