Subject:      Changed thermostat - temp gauge still reads stone cold
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1

I went on the first extended test drive today after replacing my thermostat. The temperature gauge still does not move above the lowest thick bar. If anything, it's worse than it was before. Is it possible the replacement thermostat was bad (it was a brand new Behr)? Or, is it possible there is some other problem? The van drives well and puts out lots of heat from the vents. The fan is not running. I hate to think I'm damaging the engine.
