First thing, I did search. Came up with Nada.
Second,
Engine gauge says the engine is overheated on a random basis. Most of the time the gauge reads straight up. but sometimes it will get a little warm and hang out. Then it'll jump way up in temp and stay there for a while. Nothing I seem to do gets it to cool off the gauge reading. and the real strange part is that the engine isn't hot, not even close to overheating. It cools down eventually, and it's never boiled over.
I've replaced the temp sensor in the engine bay. I thought I read that there was two of them but I can only find the one up front. Is this a computer issue?
Any ideas?
98 Sport. 4.0 No codes are being thrown. It is slowly leaking coolant from a freeze plug. but I keep the overflow bottle filled.
