Besides the gauge being in "normal" range, It seems a bit high. I finished my tune up yesterday, with all new oil, filter, air filter, sparkplugs, wires, cap and rotor. It never ran warm before the tune up. Now it likes to sit a little above half way. It does not climb higher than that, though... it's about where the hour hand on clock would sit if it were about 930 to 10. Coolant is topped up, the water pump looks new, and fan clutch is good. Does not overheat, just sits high. Thermostat, correct? Do they make thermostats that keep it running a little over the middle of the gauge? Seems odd, is all. I bought a 180deg thermostat I will be installing for peace of mind, but I hope to gain a little insight as to why the car would do this all of a sudden after a tune up.
Thank you!
