engine temp......

After years of driving a 1980 GLE, i recently bought 91 900, base 2.1L 16 valve.... anyway, the GLE always held temp at slightly below the N mark on the guage, only going above in very hot driving...and never more than slightly above. Almost every time i got out of that car the fan was still running. This 1991 has no N mark on the guage, but the needle goes all over. Sometimes it gets mightly close to the top of the guage, which i find freightening. the fans NEVER are running when i get out of the car, even when i turn off the engine when it is hot. on highway car stays at center of guage, but around town it gets hot. should i just replace the thermoswitch? can i get one that will kick in the fan at a lower temp? do i need a thermostat? should I just get both and flush the cooling system? or do these 16 valve cars run hotter? Thanks!
Josh
