Recently purchased a Beautiful 84 GL with a blown Head gasket. After repairing it and finally getting to drive her. The Temp Gauge reads about 3/4 the way up?? The top radiator hose is hot, bottom hose is cold ect ect. I've flushed the Radiator, but it still reads to high and feels to hot. Voltage at the sensor is around 9.7.
I'm used to my V's around 1/3 to 1/2 the way up. Wiring harness is perfect. The car is in great shape with 185,000 miles
Any ideas?? Thanks, Marshall in Portland
