    Possible faulty temp gauge? Hear me out on this...

    I'm fighting a very similar issue as ghettocruiser. The dealer sender doesn't come in until Monday. However all that teflon tape that I applied certainly may explain why I'm getting an odd reading on the gauge (260 with the engine running). Maybe it not getting the proper grounding. Will...

    Possible faulty temp gauge? Hear me out on this...

    So I understand a little better...the air charge temp sender on the intake manifold at the rear of the engine is actually what moves the gauge and not the thermostat temp sender? Or do they work together? Thanks, Mark 91 XJ 126k

    Exhaust Question

    Cutting to 2.25 section out is exactly what I want to do but before I started cutting parts I wanted to make sure I wasn't doing something I would regret later. There seems to be a lot of discussion on keeping backpressure and since stock exhaust after the cat is 2.25 I guess I started having...
