Want to follow-up with a post from below. I recently replaced my water pump. Before the temp gauge would be at the 1/2 way mark or a little less. Since I have had it replaced the engine temp runs at 1/4. Is this ok or better than running at 1/2 or could it cause damage? If this is a problem is it the thermostat that needs replaced and how much does that cost (parts and labor).
