Temp. Gauge ???

[7a7Accord]

Hello all,

This weekend my son and I took the accord for a ride around the block. Everything seemed well, (even w/my cracked t-stat housing), before we left the temprature gauge read slightly below the half way mark. Once we pulled into the drive and shifted into reverse the gauge fell, as if the car was shut off! I parked and simply thought that was odd, is this something I should be worried about?

TIA

check the wire on the sensor, it might be loose. Its the single wire sensor on the stat housing

[POS carb]

or on the back of the intake manifold (don't forget us carbed guys!!) :b

How can I tell if I'm carbed or not

well.....do you have a dx lx ( carbed) or lxi se-i (efi)
and what year do you have.

plus if you have and efi model, the intake would say pgm fi 12 valve
