My 96 4.0 explorers temperature gauge doesnt seem to work right. It never goes higher than the first line? I know it works because where the "C" is there is a little line above it and then there is a space then the first line begins. Mine moves inbetween the "C" and the line (where the rainbow shaped line begins? Is this normal? Im chasing a stumbling problem and dont know if there is a sensor or something that this may be affecting? Heat works fine and so does the cold air as well. Any ideas? Thanks:)Nel
 






Is your thermastat stuck open? Have you noticed crappy mileage or anything?

I dont know...seems like it isnt the best mileage.

How can you check if it is stuck open? THanks:)Nel
