I replace new thermostat in the engine. I observed after 5-15mins idle running hte temp guage is in half reading. And I have noticed in a long time engine is running in idle or in acceleration the temp guage is remain in constant reading. Is this a good performance of the thermostat.
How long thermostat last?
