I just purchased a prosport digital water temp. gauge.
Couldnt find the M16x1.5 adaptor to thread into the temp sender for the stock gauge, but I have a 3/8", so i threaded it into the hole where the bvsv goes to try it out (temporarely).
I will drive around and let the car reach operating temp. and the gauge will only read 165-166F. However, as soon as I turn the car off, the gauge will slowly climb and hit 213*
Then when i turn the car back on, it will decrease again!!
What is causing this!? Could the temporary location where the bvsv usually goes not be very accurate? Will i get a more accurate reading where the stock temp. sender goes for the stock gauge?
I have a new 192* thermostat in there if that helps any of you with coming up with an answer?...
