Cause of low temp readings 850

posted by  someone claiming to be jpcammar on  Thu Aug 1 08:39 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Some time ago I asked about what could cause the temperature gauge to read abnormally cold (just above the cold line, no matter how far, fast, or warm the engine was). I had the thermostat replaced and there was no change. Given that the most common cause is eliminated, I am curious about other possibilities. Could the tension on the serp belt be a possible cause? How about a failed tensioner? Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Joe C.
