Re: Temp Question

My gauge recently started registering higher than previous after changing out the thermostat to a fail safe model.

It's a digital gauge and reads one bar higher (over twoo hundred), both temp sending units have been replaced in the past couple months. I hooked up the scanner and monitored the temp and noticed the temp gets to about 194 when the new bar lights up on the gauge. The temp goes to about 201-202 before the thremostat opens and then the engine runs around 194, yet the gauge is still showing over 200. No big deal, I was just glad to see my acutal temps haven't changed.
