1st warm day. Saw the engine temp jump at first to 70%, then sat down at 50% until I got home. Was driving for an hour. Also, it normally sits at 30%. Ideas? I have been told I have a small trans axle leak. Could it be related? Should I check oil & coolant levels?

whens the last time the cooling parts were serviced (ie replaced)
coolant water pump thermostat radiator cap is your cooling system rusty? we need to know if its a lack of maintainence or what are your hoses brittle are you dripping/spraying coolant anywhere when the motor is hot the problem with the factory gauge is that once it moves higher than the half way mark, the temp is already past boiling point and the damage has already begun, the factory gauge is **** -------------------- Mike W
