Maybe the thermostat and gasket isn't seated properly?
In the coolant temperature switch hole is where the after market gauge is getting its reading.
I'm lost now, because this is a total of 3 thermostats...they can't all be bad. There has got to be another problem somewhere.
How reliable are the internals on this motor?, since they are forged from what I hear.
I hooked up a second gauge to test the temperature, and it gave me the same reading. I also notice that there mite be a small leak somewhere,...
Today I've notice that my coolant temperature gauge goes up to about 110 degrees and stops. I've drained the radiator a little bit, to see if the...

After I had the radiator repaired, it found a new hole to leak from. (You guys were right.) So I purchased a new radiator from Advance Auto Parts...
