im new to the forum

ive just bought a ford escort R reg 1.4 CL Estate

the problem i am having with it is;

the temperature gauge shots up every time i start the car, rather than moving up slowly to the middle and stay there it doesn't

can someone please advice me what i can do to fix this problem?

the car doesnt over heat, drives fine etc.. just the temperature gauge has me a bit worried

sounds like the temp sensor is done for mate,

should be no more than £20 to replace

it could also be the wiring to the sensor earthing out causing the gauge to move, so check the wiring to the sensor.
