My 1986 245 was all tuned up for a long haul from the east coast to Wisconsin and back that I'm going to be taking soon, when I noticed on the highway that the temp gauge was creeping up. I was going about 75, and it dipped back down when I slowed down. When my speed went up, so did the gauge. The next time I started it up, everything was OK. Normally I wouldn't care, but I don't want to get stranded in Gary at 2:00am. Should I prophylactically replace my thermostat? Any suggestions?
thanks,
Kurt
