Car running too cold
91 GTA 5.0 TPI doesn't get warm according to her guage... I replaced the thermostat and cooling sensor a couple years ago. The car is idling a little high bc of this as the computer seems to be giving the car more fuel.
any ideas? maybe the thermostat is stuck open?

Yes.
A stuck open stat is about the only thing that can cause that can cause the engine to not come up to operating temp.

Re: Car running too cold
What's the ACTUAL temperature? (as measured with an INSTRUMENT such as an infrared thermometer as opposed to the wavy pointer trim package thingy in the dash)
