Oil & Temp Gage On Strike

The PCB might have cracked.

Are the gages erratic?


Happy Racing!

Re: Oil & Temp Gage On Strike

Thanks I found the problem it was the sensor wire for the temp gauge on driver side of block. My primary cooling fan is always running when the engine is on. I checked the relay and that's not the problem, that's the only problem I have right now.
