Hi guys,
I have an LS1 V-8 conversion, and I'm using the console oil temp. gauge for coolant temp. instead. My problem is that when it's running at normal temperatures, the needle is at about 9/10ths, just short of the red region on the gauge face. I'd like it to be at about 2/3rds. Is it as simple as putting a resistor between the sensor and gauge, and how would I figure out the value of such a resistor? An adjustable pot? Thanks!! |
