I had my Bluetooth obd2 adapter on and was using the torque app, temp got up to 250 or so when it was at 3/4 on the dash. Should I be worried of any damage from those temps?
Repeatedly then yes I'd worry,later down the road expect a valve seat to drop or head gasket issues.This can take 1 week or 2 years.I had my cooling fan relay die on the trail while I was away from Jeep and it badly overheated.Took 2 years for that valve seat to finally drop,at least I was fairly close to home and still drove it there.Engine was trashed anyways so another mile wasn't going to hurt anything any more then what was already done.
Just remember that ECT is high in the cooling system and can read very incorrectly with air trapped in the system.A few more degrees and that needle would be at the red zone of the temp gauge.
