Where does everyone’s temp gauge sit?


Is this low on the temp gauge? I’ve got a leak in my cooling sensor but even when full and towing 10k it doesn’t budge above that. Normal?

It’s not an actual full range gauge, more of a glorified idiot light really with just a cold, normal and hot position.

I would be more concerned about the fuel tank level unless you have done the Hutch/ Harpoon mod.

If you are concerned about the coolant temp get a proper gauge and sit it next to the new oil temp gauge in the pod...

My temp gauge rides a little higher than yours, usually I see the very end of the bottom wavy line popping out below the needle, but it does not sit in the middle of the normal range. My other gauges are about the same as yours. (Temp gauge is same color as the others, I guess the sunlight was shining on it weird)
