Robert Petch Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Hi, I'm a new member. I have a 1999 Focus 1.8 TDdi which has done 99'000 miles. I have had a lot of work done on it and it runs like a new car but recently I've noticed the temperature gauge isn't going up as far. The heater is luke warm. Under harsh acceleration the gauge seems to go up to halfway but when I take my foot off or slow down it drops to about 1/4 of the way up. Could this be the thermostat stuck open?? Thanks for any advice or help anyone can offer..... Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btmaldon Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 It does sound like the stat is stuck open. Should be an easy fix. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swhite87 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 either thermostat stuck or you have an airlock in the system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
