=20
I suggest you check to see if your engine is well-grounded to the =
=E2=80=9Cground=E2=80=9D side of your battery ,and to your gauge.=20
Perhaps the ground continuity was altered during the engine work.
Also, on my Griffith Series 200 I encountered an odd problem with my =
fuel gauge not reading correctly.
Peter Bayer (Nisonger Instruments) helped solve it::: I had to assure =
that I had a solid ground to the case of the fuel gasuge itself.
=20
S|UMMARY: Check all of your ground paths.
Hope this helps.

Hey all =E2=80=93
=20
It=E2=80=99s been quiet here so hoping to T-up an easy discussion. =20
=20
My temp gauge is reading about 25 degrees high. I noticed it after a =
shop installed a new clutch, which required the engine to be removed, =
coolant drained, etc., but nothing that should have affected how the =
gauge reads. Running on a cool day, temps were reading around 215-220 =
degrees. To ensure I wasn=E2=80=99t actually in danger of overheating, =
I checked various water-cooled locations with an infrared thermometer. =
Highest reading was right at the water neck/thermostat housing (191 deg =
F). The fuel gauge is reading accurately. I understand the under-dash =
instrument stabilizer can affect both instruments, but in this case, =
only one gauge is off. I plan to check the ground to the temp gauge and =
clean contact points at the engine sending unit and at the gauge. Any =
other suggestions? =20
=20
Thanks and I hope all is well out there!
