GREAT NEWS GUYS! It looks like the Subaru temperature sender fixed the problem. The gauge went to the middle (just a little below) and stayed there. I even climbed a steep hill and accelerated up it. I am keeping my fingers crossed that the old sender just drifted out of specification. Assuming the gaskets are indeed fine, I am going to try and avoid or push out a future problem. I have switched to Pennzoil high mileage oil and I plan to put some of the Subaru coolant conditioner in the overflow tank so it can work its way into the system. Both should help keep seals and gaskets conditioned and sealed. I also tend not to drive my cars hard so the car has that going for it.
