If you lean it just a tad to get temps up about 225 it will be fine. Just turn in teh high speed needle about 1/16 turn at a time. What is your outside temps.

honestly, if its running good then dont worry, 190 is close enough to 200. you usually want 200 and over to break the engine in but if you broke it in already just run it.
