HI GUYS, STARTING IN AM, MY 5.7 HEATING WILL BURY THE NEEDLE HOT. AFTR A FEW MINUTES THE GAUGE WILL RETURN TO NORMAL AND I CAN KEEP RUNNING. I WASN'T SURE IF THIS COULD ONLY BE T-STAT STICKING. SOME COOANT HAS DRAINED. THX

Thermostat is good idea if it opens at 210 instead of 195 that would do it. Once open enough heat to keep open.What do you mean some coolant drained?
