Re: Daverods 52

Check the actual temp and compare it to the gauge reading. I got a little worried when my Chevelle started "over heating". Turned out the gauge or sender has decided to read 15 degrees high (mechanical VDO 12 years old), so now I just do a mental adjustment. I have a commercial restaurant grade dipper tester that I use (do not use your wifes candy thermometer).
