Typical for me also, if by "low side" you mean just above the first 3
closely spaced bars. That is even right after installing new multifunction
sensor and new 87 deg thermostat.

Many (most?) '91 200q owners seem to "complain" of that same behavior, but
it seems quite normal (although not necessarily accurate) for these beasts.
Then again, what is "accurate", since our temp gauges aren't labelled?
