anyone have an idea as to why the temp gauge wasn't working properly? when starting the car, it would be at cold, and when driving, it would be in the middle, it never marked hot, not even when it shut down. also, i never saw any steam/smoke, only some minor smoke rising from the oil leak on the valve cover. the mechanic hasn't called me since tuesday, so i don't know how damaged the engine is, but my guess is it's done. it was pinging already and i ran it like that.
