I have a 1988 Mustang with a 5.0 liter, V8 engine.

The temperature gauge stays right in the middle of the normal range when the car is up to operating temperature. Since there are no numbers on the gauge (other than the two numbers on each end of the temp range), I have no idea what temperature the car is operating at. Again, the guage stays right in the middle of the normal range and doesn’t really fluctuate.

Any ideas on what this reading might represent?

Thanks!
