My heat in my truck wasn't very hot so I thought thermostat went bad cuz my gauge in my truck wouldn't work so I changed it and my gauge in my truck started working...but when it starts to warm up the gauge will start moving up and gets a little over half way on the gauge and it will start pumping some good heat out....then it drops goes back to the first line on the gauge within seconds and it doesn't pump out as much heat....The first thermostat was a 160 so I put the original 190 in....should I put a higher one in?
