Hi
my '93 has been displaying cold temp when the engine is warmed up.
I bought a new temp sending part that connects to the single wire just to the left side of thermostat on manifold.
I have been reading many different threads and one of them talked about sender grounding to the manifold? I read someone used teflon on threads and the new gauge did not work because it insulated the sender from ground.
If true,
why did my new part come with teflon on the threads...I should take it off?
thanks greg
