Temperature Gauge problem

[GUIL-BOT]

Hi,

I have a problem with my temperature gauge... As soon as I start the car, the needle always goes to the right side (hot)and stay there...
I was wondering how I could solve the problem... Do you guys think it might be the sensor, the gauge... or anything else...? Please let me know of your opinions.

Thanks,

Sounds like your sending unit might be shot.

If it were me, I'd get a real analog gauge in there (e.g. Autometer or similar) so you have a good, accurate, reliable gauge in the car instead of the factory one.

X2.. My factory gauge will bounce all over the place, while my Autometer electric Water Temp gauge will remain at a
constant temp.. One of the best things i ever did..

my gauge is all over the place as well! I want to get a clock pod with aftermarket gauges since they will be accurate unlike the stock electrical gauges...
