Subject:      Temp Guage

"MD was in the 30-40F range  This is not uncommon for
this vehicle.  If I let the car idle for a good half
hour the temp guage does rise to a little less than
midway so I assume the gauge is working.  Also around
town the guage will rise slightly.  Is there a problem
that can arise from not running hot enough?"


I live in Salt Lake and we've had highs in the 30's for
a month or so and my temp guage NEVER gets above the
bottom "peg" on the guage. It will move up in city
traffic, stop 'n go, but most of my driving is fwy. Did
the same last winter but in the summer it moves up to
the red light area on the guage.
