Stan Thanks for the advise Its kinda funny I was thinking that the gauge might be my problem. I guess sometimes its easy over look the obvious. Ill give this...
One thing I've heard is the aftermarket temperature sending units don't read the same as the genuine Ford units. A few people I know with 60s Mustangs noticed...
