gauge.....currently the reading is way up to 3/4 (sometimes overheat range)
but the car is not overheat......please help me....

I have sent it to a mechanic n measured the temperature of the engine
itself.....it is at a normal rate.....even when i'm driving....the gauge
went up to the overheat n by right the car should be smoke but mine
does......is there any way i can calibrate it so that i would read normal
again....thanx

ease.
