Hi. I just bought a 1995 Nissan Mistral, 2.7l Diesel in New Zealand. Has got 263,000km on the clock and works fine. However, the temperature gauge does bnot really rise much at all (in town) and there is hardly and heat coming from the heating. Any ideas, guys? Much appreciated! Dirk
Sounds like the thermostat is stuck open, meaning the engine is not getting up to running temperature. would be best to change the thermostat and give the water system a good flush out. and back flush the heater core. as you don't know how long this problem has been around it can cause rust build up in the engie as flow is weaker. when topping up use a good inhibitor antifreeze/summer coolant 50/50 mix. and run for a year with this mix in and replace it. and flush again this should of then sorted the corrosion in the water system.

you might want to replace your thermostat and start from there
