Subject:89 Temperature guage acting funky
From:Michael Schiesser
Date:Mon, 28 Aug 2000 13:23:57 -0700

It used to linger at about 1/2 way up the guage with
normal driving, sometimes hotter when it got hotter,
which is only natural for a temperature guage. THen I
had my water pump replaced, and I think it worked
after that, but some hoses still leaked and I took it
in to have the guy get it all cookin just right. he
tightened the hose, and since then the temp guage
hardly moves. When it gets going it moves about a
millimeter, but stays right at the "cold" line. First
I figured that more pressure in the cooling system
resulted in greater efficiency, and that it must be
doing really great (duh). I've since moved so I cant
take it back to the guy, stuck with my tools and any
help you all can give me from your experience.

"Fruitlands" is name given to the region around Harvard Mass by early settlers. We dont live there any more, but I did when I chose fruitlands as a user name.
