It appears I will needing a thermostat, at least I hope that’s all I need. Temp sudddenly crept up while rotting in line waiting for fast food. But right before it go to the white hashmark it dropped back to normal.
This will be the 4th thermostat between three Tercel that I will have replaced.
It’s a stop-and-go 35-minute drive home today... Let us hope something really bad doesn’t happen :)

How’s the coolant level? Any chance that the thermostat is opening late because there’s no coolant touching it?

Any chance it could be a shot water pump?

Rotting in line? How long were you waiting?

How do you know it’s not the fans just coming on late? Or is this car so old that logic doesn’t apply?

Long enough for the car to overheat.

Sure could be. Definitely an aftermarket one there but it’s not like I can (or do) trust anything the seller might have said.

Not sure. Didn’t have any issues with that myself but I didn’t own them for very long to experience...

Upon further inspection, the fan is in fact coming on later than it used to...

Not sure if that’s something you can adjust via ECU but they seem to be working so if it ain’t broke don’t fix it!
