I just replaced the thermostat recently, switched from one like this.
to one like this.
I had an over heating problem, and thought it might have been the thermostat, ended up being something else which is now fixed, but now it seems the car runs warmer than usual. The thermostat is now sitting right about here.

So, is that too warm? The temp gauge used to sit right between the first two lines on there, and if you can't notice it's sitting right on the first line in the picture, and while I was driving it was sitting just a little bit past the first line and second line. Does that seem too hot? The new thermostat is 180 degrees which is what my owners manual said to use. Thanks for any input.
