sorry about your thread dude.....lol

I'd try bleeding the air out of the coolant system, and make sure that it is actually getting that hot....a bad ground could be causing the gauge to freak out.

eyy i had the same problem once.. Its ur Head Gasket...Maybe its not damaged alot. but it has some damage.any damage will do the job to heat that engine up..idk i could be wrong... Heres a way to know if ur head gasket is out. take off radiator cap and tell everyone to stand way way back..u go ahead and turn the car on. if the radiator coolant comes gushing out then u got a bad head gasket. Be careful doin so..
