he looks like a new guy (look at post count) so why not tell him where to post rather than being a smart ass. To the OP, post this in tech section and good luck with your issue.

what! There's another 90fox ![[Frown]](frown.gif)
The temp gauge rising with the lights on is common. Every 5.0 I see does that. I heard it's because of a bad ground but I have not clue if that's right.

Check to see if anything is blocking the front of your radiator.

Yea, if you have pets fur can do it. One time I had this issue and it was fur. My dogs were kept in the garage with the car.
Also try the other stuff mentioned.
