94 80 temp gauge
I was cruising down the CA-91 from Riverside to Orange in my 94 80 when the temp gauge needle went past the red zone, and remained pegged above the red zone. I exited the CA-91 as soon as possible and pulled over to safe spot and inspected. Everything seems to be intact, with no signs of leakage or smoke. The expansion tank was empty (as I filled it up 2600 miles ago from IL-CA XC trip), but the radiator was full. I was able to get home, refilled the expansion tank , and waited until the following morning to test run the engine from dead cold. The temp gauge needle is still pegged above the red zone, and when the ignition is off the needle points all the way down still.
Will this temp gauge mod fix the problem or do I need to get a new gauge assembly all together? Any other advice would be appreciated. Thanks...
