'85 fj 60 stock & fullly smogged 2f. I want to use the stock gauge AND an aux electrical water temp gauge.
Wow ! I've searched until my eyes are red but can't find a thread that helps at all.
I want to install a 2nd water temp gauge (and keep using the stock gauge) and I wish to use an electrical one...not mechanical. It would be easy enough if I didn't want to keep using the stock gauge also...I've temporarily hooked up my new electrical gauge to the stock sending unit at back of the head and the aux gauge works fine.
What I can't figure out is what sending unit to get and even harder...how & where to mount it for the aux gauge. I've got to think someone smarter than me (leaves a wide field) has successfully done this. Can someone PLEASE point me in the right direction.
Thanks, John
