When I purchased my 60, it the temperature took a long time to get warm (as shown on the gauge), and when it did get warm it never really made it above the "low" side on the gauge.....in addition to that the heater wasn't really working.
A couple weeks ago, I decided to replace the thermostat, which turned out to be pretty nasty with lots of RTV, and no bottom gasket. Thanks for all the posts on how to get this done, was fairly simple after reading the threads.
This weekend, I flushed the coolant, and flushed out the heater core (lots of nasty brown crap in the heaters). Followed the ChrisFix videos. Now it gets pretty dang warm inside, so I will take that as a solid win!
My concern is the gauge still shows the exact same "low" reading that it did when I purchased it (see picture).
So my question is: Is this a problem that I should be concerned with, or is this just normal? Should I consider replacing the sensor?
(Feel free to comment on the oil pressure too if you feel compelled.)
