    I just purchased an 05 Z78 with the Inline 5. Even on the warmest days the temp gauge stays right around the 1/4 mark on the temp gauge.

    So yesterday I did a cooling system overhaul; new waterpump, thermostat, hoses and fresh DEXCOOL. Well last night my Scan Gauge was showing that I was running between 195-200.

    you get to it??? I stopped on the way home and bought one along with the proper amount of coolant (thanks Darek) thinking I would change it tonight because I think it is stuck in the closed position.
