Temperature Compensator Board 240-260 87

ICQ>

Still struggling to correct an unpredictable temperature guage.

Guage still reads dead cold about half the time and is variable the other

half of the time. I've replaced the wire from the coolant temp sensor to

the temp guage. I've replaced the temperature sensor too, but things still aren't right. Thanks to all who offered advice on replacing the sensor.

I finally reached it with a 17mm open end wrench by removing the distributor cap and rotor. Manifold did not have to be removed. Just about all that's left to fiddle with is the temperature compensator board.

Stupid question: what is a temperature compensator board, what does it look

like and where is it located in my 87 245? Can I fix it, or must it be

replaced?
