Greetings,

so my '64 Valiant temp gauge barely moves off the left edge. I grounded the sender wire with the key switch on and the gauge casually pegs to the right. I used a laser temp gauge on the thermostat housing and read 185 F.


I'm thinking a new sender. Any other ideas?

Does anyone know a part number for a replacement sender?

Thanks! Neil

The early sender has larger thread (1/4"-27 dryseal) than the late sender (1/8"-27 dryseal), and your '64 does not use the early (up-to-'63) sender. It uses the later small-thread sender, Standard № TS-205.

Too many people who were born on third base actually believe they've hit a triple.

Thanks for clearing that up for me. My other convertible was a '63. Obviously I'm mis remembering the good old days. Thanks for the part #.
