Hello gentlemen, hope everyone is having a good week so far.

My '73 only has a temp warning light and I'd like to know that it is good before I push the car into regular use. I'm clearly struggling trusting the car absent gauges that give me the information I'm used to....

Pull and ground one of the leads?

Thanks!

Hi George!

So, effectively, is the light coming on when ignition is turned on and then off when running all the test I need?

Thanks.

Yes, as long as you stop referring to it as a "temp warning light" ...

oil temperature != oil pressure
