Why does my temperature gauge go up so fast?
A thermostat stuck in the open position will allow a constant flow of coolant causing a lower operating temperature. This increases emission, makes the engine wear faster, and leaves your gauge reading cool at all time. On the inverse, an overheating thermostat occurs if the device is closed and won’t open.
Why does my car temperature keep going up?
When your thermostat is not working properly or is stuck closed, this will not allow the coolant to properly circulate through the engine, which may cause the engine temperature to fluctuate erratically or in some cases just remain hot.
