Interesting Overheating Issue
So I recently installed a new factory toyota thermostat in my 4runner, since the previous one was continuing to stick open, but now everytime I leave my house in the morning to go to work itll run about 3/4s of the the temp gauge before opening. After that, it runs normal the rest of the day. Doesnt overheat while wheeling or anything, just first thing in the morning. There is plenty of coolant, and Im not leaking anwhere, or atleast that I can see. Any advice? Anything would help at this point. THanks!

another bad t-stat?
they're made cheaply, and I've had more expensive parts come factory defected.
you can run the t-stats from an autopart store, they go bad every 4-5 years IME.
