Coolant System Diagnosis 140-160 1972

So now I've tried to test the temperature sensor using boiling water and had zero response on the gauge, it doesn't move at all. I had another voltage stabilizer in my collection of extra parts. I switched out the stabilizer and now the fuel gauge works but still no response from the temperature gauge. I put the old stabilizer into the spare instrument cluster and the fuel gauge works sometimes and sometimes not, so I'm pretty sure the old voltage stabilizer is bad, but now need to figure out the temperature issue. I'm concerned that the wire may be bad since I did have to change the female fitting to the sensor due to the fact that the original was barely holding on. The wiring diagram in the Haynes has the sensor connecting to the fuel gauge than the temp gauge, how would I run a new wire, or is worth getting a new sensor?
