Would like to see live data vs the gage data...

Was P0128 set?

I have had cars idling in the bay in the garage where it is warm, and the needle slowly moves up to normal......but go out on the highway and it drops immediately(especially in this cold weather).......fix, thermostat...
Thanks....Where did you get chart?
I can't imagine thermostat because the needle on gauge was set all the way on cold. Even when I drive the car without a thermostat (which I did at one time for about a month) the needle came up to about 1/4 gauge. BTW...I'm in the Keys so it's 75* down here...
