Cooling fan operating temperatures?

I had no luck finding this in the archives. What are the temperature zones for when the cooling fan comes on & shuts off for a 89 TBI? I'm trying to determine if mine is functioning properly. I think my fan shuts off to soon. Thanks

On GM engines originally equipped with a 195*F T-stat, the #1 Fan turns on around 226-228*F and turns off 218-220*F.
