| NOTE |
| The picture on the left is the original gauge post temperature compensation board jumper procedure. I ordered the kit from IPD and installed it correctly. It would just climb up to right before the red and stay there, idling, highway, or otherwise. The right is a gloss finish earlier year replacement gauge after the original read very high after jumpering. The car is a 1989 245. These high readings were seen after a full cooling system overhaul: new Hepu pump, new Nissens original style radiator, all new Mackay hoses including heater hoses, coolant flush (before new rad), new OEM tropical fan clutch, new OEM fan blade, new 87 degree Wahler thermostat, new OEM Bosch coolant temp sensor, new sensor to gauge, new voltage stabilizer for the dash. The wiring from the sensor to the gauge was intact and sound. The car showed no sign of running hot even with incredibly high dash readings. |
