Re: need some help overheating (spoon93)
sort of sounds like a stuck thermostat to me. They can sometimes get stuck and then release. if it happens again i'd replace that.

I'm a little confused. The needle was at the halfway point when you thought it was overheating? The halfway point is what most people call "operating temperature".
