intermittant temp gauge failure 200 1988



does anyone have any experience with this? my temp gauge fails to work intermittently, and mostly during hot weather or after turning the engine off and starting it again soon after. many times, the guage works first thing in the morning, but on fuel stops or when runnnig errands, it goes kaput. the problem is much worse in the summer and sometimes i can go almost all winter (michigan) with no temp guage problems.

a local garage (that is not volvo expert) recommended i install a separate one of the dash, but i'd rather avoid this. at the same time, i don't want to ruin an engine.

thanks for your kind feedback.
