re: 87 245 auto - coolant temp gauge issue 200 1987

Hi All

My coolant temp. gauge drops below middle very often, it dips to bottom 1/4". If I turn on my heater, the gauge comes right back up to normal. If not, the gauge stays there... What's wrong with my gauge?

new coolant temp. sensor/sensor connector is clean
new radiator/hoses
new thermostat
IPD coolant temp. board bypass kit
no water leak just stress bleed from radiator plug time to time
fan/fan clutch good
head gasket is good as well
got belly splash pan
