It's possible that there is no problem. If you look at the hash marks 
on the gauge face you will notice that they are crammed up toward 
the F mark. It is normal for the gauge to not move at all for a "long" 
time, and then seem to move quickly. 100 miles would be a lot, but 
50 miles would be perfectly normal.

OTOH, it could be stuck.
