Where Can I get a good temp sending unit that will make the gauge read correctly? This is the one in the cylinder head for a gauge.
I got a new one today, because the old one was reading wrong, and the new one reads wrong too!
I know the gauge needle should be sticking straight up when it's at operating temp. The old sender was at the 1/4 mark to the left at operating temp, and the new temp sender is at the 3/4 mark to the right.
IIRC the old one was from Advance auto, and the new one is too. I got a reading from each sender before installing the new one.
I can't recall what the meter was set on, it was ohms, and the new sender read 0.50 and the new sender read 0.72 . so am I correct to assume I should look for one in the middle, say 0.61? I may go search through what the store has tomorrow, and see if they vary or not. They always let me dig around in their stuff anyway.
