Oil/Temp Gauge
 
Question...My Water/Oil Temp Gauge for my 73 seems to be off, looks lik my car is running hot but it's not.....Does anyone know what other years would work with my 73

Thank you.....

I believe we discussed this before. As I recall the pre '74s temp gauge reads 10 degrees higher on the face and has a temperature sender calibrated to match.

74-77 should be the same...

Thank you for your responses....Looks like it was not the Gauge after all. I had installed a new sending unit and that was causing the bad temp reading...my friend had a older one that we installed and that did the trick.
