All internal combustion engines generate heat when they run. If your automobile is not generating heat when it is idling, there are several reasons.

1. The coolant level is too low.

2. The thermostat is not opening

3. The water pump is not moving enough coolant and it could be bad.

It is normal for the temperature gauge to fluctuate 20 to 50 degrees when a motor is runnning at higher speeds than when idling
