  • Temparture Guage...

    Recently my temperature guage has been going a little crazy it jumps up and down, it usually goes up to like 240* which is impossible because it sometimes does that when its 70-80* out and i popped my hood to check things out and it didn't seem to hot, does anyone know what the problem could be, the oil, gas, etc guage seem to be working properly is this just a senosor problem?

    It could be your thermostat sticking if it goes from being cold to hot and back to cold. You might as well just replace that since its cheap and very easy to do. You can get a new thermostat for like $5.

      Check your coolant level. If it is low it could be air pockets hitting the sensor.

        Yeah run the car with the radiator cap off, fill it up with your 50/50 coolant mix and you will see your levels drop as the bubbles (air pockets come up) I had a similar problem.
