i recently did the gauge cluster swap, 2 weeks ago maybe. i didnt have the stock bung in the rear of my new 0630 head to mount the temp sensor so i didnt get the temp gauge working until i installed the sender in the upper radiator hose about a week later. i pulled the cluster and the sender from the junk yard. its great being able to actually monitor how my jeep is running. im idling at about 500, and oil pressure is at about 30. funny thing is i never seem to reach optimum operating temp according to the gauge. the gauge never seems to get past 155. im assuming normal operating temp is about 200. i know i wont get any reading until the thermostat opens first the first time on a cold start so i must be reaching 210 right?
how accurate is the stock gauge? it has to be more accurate than this. could i have gotten a bad sender? its not possible that im running this cold is it?
