383 is running hot. Not sure if the guage is faulty or if there's a problem. This weekend it went north of 220 then settled in at 215. Other days the thermostat seems to kick on and it stays about 190. Can a thermostat stick and not open sometimes?

No overflow, no weird smell, no leakage that I can see- any thoughts?
