I've been reading up on the Cooling System in the tech wiki. My temperature gauge has never gone past 1/4 way to H as long as I have owned it....EVER. Most of the time it sits about an 1/8 of the way to H.

Does this mean my engine is running too cold? What are the symptoms and does it cause poor engine performance?

Engine Runs Too Cold - never warms up * Most likely, the thermostat is bad, stuck partly open and not blocking the water in the engine. Replace the thermostat
