I was wondering why my temperature gauge hand will not get in the normal operating area. The picture shown is while I have been driving after about 30 minutes or maybe longer. That is the highest the hand will move. I have replace the fan clutch. I thought it should be at least in the middle after running that long.

The thermostat may be stuck fully open not allowing the engine to properly warm up. Also, can you tell me if you get good heat from the vehicle or is it just warm?
