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?

also if you have a bad head gasket you will have all the signs listed above by BOX plus excess preasure in your cooling system, you can find a shop that has a sniffer they can check if you are burning coolant, its just a device they put behind your exhaust and it reads what your burning, or when the motor is cold you can take the rad cap off start it up give it some revs and if coolant sprays everywhere is is bubling then you have a bad head gasket because air is getting in, or you may have an air lock.
