Temp gauge/overheating 120-130 1965

Hello,

As George recommended, back up your temperature gauge by checking with another gauge.

We use a non contact thermometer to verify temperature gauges.

This is a hand held device that can measure the infrared waves at the points that you point it at.

Most radiator shops have them and you can buy cheap versions if you want to have one as they come in handy for all kinds of jobs.

FYI a new water temperature gauge is available for $236.00.

The new gauge is the B20 version.

We sell rebuilt B18 and B20 water temperature gauges for less.
