Overheating, a slow warm-up or a temperature gauge that wanders can point to a thermostat stuck open or closed. A leaking hose, a weak water pump, a faulty coolant temperature sensor or a clogged radiator can be behind the same signs, so find the cause before buying. If the thermostat is the cause, this one replaces it.
