If you have a infrared heat gun, try measuring the radiator fin area temperature. This should give you a true idea of which gauge is correct without guessing. This method worked for me when I had a coolant temperature gauge go bad.
If you don't have one you need to get one as it is a very useful diagnostic tool. Also they are inexpensive.
Good luck............................
Wow ow I have one and did not even think of that. Brilliant idea thanks I will try that. Now Tom mentioned the yellow light warning and then the red light. All I have is the yellow dash light. Could that be the one minute warning to shut down or simply the warning light. Should I trust it? It never came on.
