Your temp gauge is reading low because your mechanic is not using an OEM Honda thermostat. An OEM thermostat is designed specifically for your engine and the car will warm up quickly and the temp gauge will sit at the 50 yard line in any weather.
The Honda thermostat opened probably 50% more than the aftermarket, so lesson learned there.
I had to replace mine again after 6 months.
Just not Motorad--unless you want to replace it again in 6 months
MotoRad thermostat. Lasted less than 6 months.
never trust an aftermarket thermostat! Especially if it has MOTORAD stamped on it.
Oreillys used to have Motorad thermostats that were 2-5$. Then they started carrying Murray, which are double the price. Guess what's in the box? Motorad. Cheap crap for a premium price.
