Capitalizing the first word of headlines is a relic of sadly bygone days.

| Jul 21, 2020 at 7:17 | comment | added | Caius Jard | Agree with checking coolant levels first, rather than straight away jumping to things like thermostat replacement. Low coolant gives erratic temperature gauge behavior if the temp sensor is picking up the temp of the hot metal it is screwed into rather than the coolant (not) washing over it (because there isn't a lot of it sloshing around due to low levels) until the thermostat opens. It's also really easy to check, often visually without even removing a cap | |
