Isn't the middle where it's supposed to be if it's heating up properly?

well...duh, lol. Doesn't take a genius to see the bars go up towards the middle.
Just meant that once it's done "going up" to running temp isn't the middle where it's supposed to be if the car is heating up properly and not overheating or under heating.

if this little piece of metal affects your temps, then you have something seriously wrong
