Rebuilding a track-car I haven't used for 10 years, it has 2 VDO head temp gauges and was set up for #s 1 and 3. I'd like to be able to watch all four.
Has anybody ever set any thing up for this before? I'd like a switch to change from 1 & 3 to 2 & 4? |

Hey, appreciate it but what I was wondering was if there was a way to rig up a switch for an extra two sending units to use the gauges I have! Just buy a thermocouple selector switch.
