Hi all,
The temp gauge has never worked on my 404, its the original capillary tube type (tube has broken). With the warmer weather on its way - (I hope), thought I should fix up a replacement.
Are the original ones still available, or has someone found any other temp sensors/ gauges that can be used???

regards Mike

Great, got myself a 12volt electric gauge, much cheaper than the original ones! My truck is 24v but i have a 12v convertor for the ignition system, so it can get a supply from that. Another job for the easter week-end!
