Check the connection the temperature sender to make sure it is clean and
solid and that the wire to the connector is not corroded out and is
connected well.  A higher resistance will make the gauge read lower.  Maybe
somebody can post the resistance reading at the sender at what temperature
table as well to check the sender out.
