Temperature Guage Reads Cold at Speed

**chynee** · 03-07-2006, 04:10 PM

I had a problem with my temperature guage reading cold all the time. I flushed the system, replaced with a new thermostat 82 deg.
The car runs at normal (half way) around town at constant speed. (good)
The new problem is when i put my foot down, the temperature guage drops to cold. When im on the motorway/highway the temperature reads cold at speeds over 80kmph (50mph) and will return to normal when driving around 40kmph (30mph)

please help, what can this be ? do i need a new radiator.
