temp gauge

[ranger690]

I have noticed lately that my temp gauge moves more than usual. It usually warms up and stays between A and L> Lately it has gone up to A and then drops down past L. Is this normal or is something starting to go.

Thanks,
Kyle

Air in the system will do this. But it sounds like normal fan cycling to me. Just how hot is A and L?

Im not worried about it overheating because it is on the lower end of the engine temp gauge, I was just wondering if it is normal, or if something was wearing out causing it to move more.

I've usually found the system low on coolant when this condition occurs.

I'll have to check, but that would make sense because, I think the heater core has a leak and found a little antifreeze under it a week a go.

if it is your heater core good luck. its fairly simple but a long process. did mine in about 5 hours. broke some plastic haha. if you have access to a garage and some air tools id deff do it yourself. part itself is only 55bucks. ur gunna cough up hundreds to have someone else do it
