Johnny, did you make sure to check the gauges again?
You may have missed something in the mud!

Didn't mean to make you sound lazy, just razzin ya. mud sucks I did it for years with my dad, he finaly built a shed to work in when he was 44, worked on farm equipment all his life OUTSIDE before that. crazy man.
anyway I was out mudding the '96 in the rain, but the camera wont be back for a while, got burrowed out.

I understand, I got two to maintain..... and we had snow here on may 12th. and two days ago it was in the 70's, spring is nuts here.

You might have to get the misses outside to help you. is the sensor a one or two wire sensor??? If its a one wire have her watch the gauge and you pull the wire off the sender and ground it out, it should read full face value of the gauge, 250* 280* whatever it is, if it does this then you know the gauge and all the wiring is good, and its in the sender.
