The temp gauge above my fuel gauge isn't working. For the life of me I cannot find any mention of it in the Haynes manual I have or even in the owners manual. Where's the sending unit for this thing? 74 2.0

Wire is green with red stripe. Heat and time have caused most of the wires to get brittle and break under the sheath giving you no reading at the gauge.

Could it be green/black on 74? There's 1 wire under battery box that's not going to the fuel pump and it's green/black. From my reading in Haynes manual that's correct

G8 and G9 are temp sender and temp indicator and the wire is indeed green/blk (track 53 and 54)
