Temp Gauge

My temperature gauge is really irratic! One minute it's off the guage hot, the next it's in the normal range and sometimes it doesn't register at all.
I recently had the wp,thermostat, belts, seals and tensioner changed. They also changes the sensor that goes into the thermostat housing.
Any suggestions as to what the problem might be??

Why was those parts changed

Was it for that exact same problem you're having now?

If not, was the air from your cooling system bleed correctly?

Re: Why was those parts changed

These parts were changed because it was overheating, plus I just passed the 130K mark.
Regarding the coolant system bleed, wouldn't the air pocket bleed out by itself after a little while?
