Have been looking for an Electrical oil temp gauge. I have all Smiths bottom read gauges, and this is my one missing gauge.
I really don't relish passing a capillary tube through the dash, and back to the motor through the chassis.
I can purchase a complete unit but its a bit expensive.
An alternative is to find a damaged capillary unit and switch the bezel to a water temp or fuel gauge. I have done this in the past, and since they all measure voltage the correct sender is all that is needed.
Went through all the junk at Carlisle last week and surprisingly found nothing.
Any members out there have an extra oil temp gauge damaged or not?
Cheers
Phil
