Hi guys, pulled the meter outta my donor car-it has a factory temp guage inside the left dash guage--question--can I hook this up using the same sensor as the one with the guages in the center console??
Or do I need a specific sending unit???

The old gauges don't really correspond with the new VDO senders, even if you match temp ranges, like the 150c or 200c. I calibrated mine in the kitchen. Just get a 12 volt power supply and boil some water. This calibrates you to 212 deg F which is boiling temp at sea level. |

tell me the posts on the back and which go to which--my haynes doesn't list it--mine has three terminals--but they only say numbers--I know which one is power, but which is sense and ground? |

J - I can slip away around 3PM Tue, Wed, Thur, Fri this week. I've been working at Opa Locka since Wednesday - I get out of there w/ a head ache. Let me know and we can hook up - I didn't make closing time for the push rod tube seals. But my brother is picking it up for me tomorrow. I would love to get her back, again, I'm putting her back FI version. The webber's went up another $100 ($900.....) I will call you tomorrow when I'm on break. |
