I'm voting for "thermostat going bad." The temp. gauge should really go to 1/2 and stay there. 1/4 is not better than 1/2. Keep in mind that you'll need to thoroughly bleed the air out of the system before you will get an accurate reading on the temp. gauge. There are a couple of write-ups here on this site that will tell you how to bleed the system..

If the replacement thermostat doesn't cause the gauge go to 1/2 and stay there, replace it too.
