temp gauge problem..

[WILMASBOYL78]

Having some trouble with a mech. temp gauge(summit unit) that is in black auto car...worked fine and now it hardly moves the needle...I checked the sensor at the block..looked ok...no major kinks in the cap. tube....any thoughts...?????

Probably a crack in the capillary tube somewhere... Advice would be to toss it and buy another. Better yet, toss ALL the Summit gauges and get a nice set of vintage SW's or Suns.

Replaced the gauge today and had the same result...took the original and tested on the stove and guess what?? it worked!.....then I tested the new one and it worked....this BB just runs cool I guess http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hmmm.gif have some vintage gauges in the parts dept....need to get the sending units and such organized..more fun..
