    mustang temp

     



    I'm looking at getting an 86 GT. When driving around town the temp gets just a smidge past halfway. Is this normal for mustangs? or is there something up.

    the gauges in these cars are known to be unreliable. I would temperaly install an aftermarket gauge just to get a god read on the temp.
