- '95 Eddie Bauer
Hi, I'm a newb to this forum and this is my first post. I did search here but I haven't really found an answer to my problem. I have a '95 Eddie Bauer that has a strange problem. The temp gauge goes up and down as I drive. It usually goes from right on the bottom mark of the normal range to half way up, and continues this no matter how long I drive. Sometimes if the temp is below 30 degrees out, it will dip down below the normal range. Also, the temp of the heater goes up and down too, but it doesn't seem to be in sync with the engine temp. I replaced the thermostat, flushed and burped the system but that hasn't helped. One thing I noticed was that the old thermostat I took out was in backwards. At least I think. The pointed end was inside the engine block and the spring end was inside the housing that goes over it. Anyway, I put it in both ways and it made no difference. Which way is it supposed to go and does anyone have any pointers to the temp gauge/heater problem.
Thanks,
Greg
