Hey Fellas,

I'm looking for alternative senders to use with a Temp. Gauge that's part of the combo gas gauge.
I know what the stock/correct sender type and placement is, but I don't want the hassle of the taco plate mounting and issues associated with that. Is there another sender that works with this gauge that is an easy and cheap alternative? I figure even if the gauge reads high or low, as long as it is functional and not pinned full on or off I can get an idea of where the "safe" range is. After all there aren't any temp. numbers on it.
Anyone tried this Guage with a drain plug sender or anything else? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Just curious.

Thanks,
Mike
