I found a really cool gauge from an early 911 to install into my 914. the pressure side works great, but the temp side pegs out. do i need the correct sender to make this thing work? all the wiring from sender to gauge checks out, and the orginal sender from the 914 worked before the install. is it the gauge or the sender?

thanks to everyone for the input. we tried the gauge on a different car, a 914/6, and the darn thing pegged again. i was sure looking at that gauge with the press/temp and the fuel, that would be ideal. the thought was to connect the low fuel light to the parking brake light. a fuel gauge would be nice...
