Temperature gauge sticks at start-up
No real big deal (yet) but at start up the temp gauge doesn't move for a couple of minutes and then jumps usually to some point in the blue and then goes up normally to operating temp. How do I un-stick the gauge at start? Or just live with it.
TIA

Are you sure it's sticking?
It may just be that as the thermostat goes from closed to open, it lets a rush of hot coolant past the sender and the guage moves.
Mine kind of hangs out in the blue then as the car warms up, it quickly moves to 12 o'clock.
