Hey all. I am new to this NEW site, I was surprised that my old info from 17 years ago wasn't still in the system!
Anyway, I am back in the Y Block game and REALLY rusty. I picked up my new to me 1930 Model A Coupe today, complete with what I am told is a 1959 Fairlane 292. I got it home today and drove it around town and the DASHBOARD temp gauge kept climbing. It got up around 220 and I got pretty nervous. There is one of those Moon brand temp gauges that is threaded into the intake at the t-stat housing but you can only read it while looking at the gauge in the intake...well that one seemed to be showing around 190/200. THAT is where I always used to put my gauge sender...
LINK to the type of Moon gauge I mean:
https://www.mooneyesusa.com/product-p/mpg109lf.htmWHERE else would you put one- i.e., where is the one that the dash gauge is screwed into? I am thinking of putting that one into the intake so I have a better idea of what is going on.
