Subject:Temp gauge pegged to the right

Hi,

yesterday SWMBO told me that Paddlevan  84 1.9 l was showing as running hot.

Last night I went through the bleeding procedure and every thing appeared to be fine

but after  it warmed up the gauge stayed to the right.When i stopped and it idled down

the guage dropped to the left...

So far no apparent coolant loss . no coolant trail . The system appears to be holding pressure.

 I am using the orange dexcool..Should I head for the hills or replace the thermostat????

Any other suggestions

Paddlevan
