[DML] Re: Engine temp gauge not working

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The sender unit by the oil filter is for the oil pressure gauge. The
sender unit for the temp gauge is on the front of the right side
cylinder head. The sender unit for the oil pressure light is on the
left side of the motor towards the rear. To test the temp gauge, with
the key on, MOMEMTARALY ground the wire going to the sender. Don't
keep it grounded or you will burn out the gauge. It should peg all the
way to hot it if the gauge is working. If it does "peg" then either
you are not making a good connection on the sender or the sender is
bad. The sender doesn't fail often so I figure you really don't have a
good connection on the sender.
