Repost as I botched first question, sorry:
1990 Olds, Temp gauge reads 1/4 of scale, with 1/2 way being about normal. I changed Thermostat with new one.
Plenty of heat so that is working. So I changed Temp. Sensor on engine block (2-wire electrical clip) on top. Made no difference...
as the engine heats up the gauge rises to just above 1/4 of mark on gauge and stops, then as the Thermostat opens, the needle on guage will drop to 1/4 scale mark.
I will run a new gauge, line etc.. if I can't figure this out but hoping something simple... as for changing gauge from one from junk yard, ... I can take a look behind dash and see what that would take, not the most friendly environment up in there.
Oh.. this Mini-van has 256,700 miles, never had engine cracked open and one solenoid on tranny changed... so it has been a keeper with just routine maint.. Just about on last leg but will runner till she drops...
Thanks for prior posts, sorry for botched first question.
