these are the possibilities.....

 

blown headgasket

cracked cylinder head

cracked cylinder block

Faulty expansion tank cap

Faulty thermostat

or air lock in the cooling system somewhere

 

I've found that a common reason for the temp guage to read low is because the two wires to the two coolent sensors are connected the wrong way round.

 

However.....from what you describe.....may well be headgasket failure
