Tempature Gauge Problem looking for info :)
« on: January 18, 2008, 05:11:52 PM »
Hey guys have any of you ever had the temp gauge in a track/kick go down when the engine revs up.
Wondering if there is a common short in wiring I can look for?
When idling it will look like it is at the right temp and when I rev the engine up it goes all the way to cold. Really wanting to fix this before I burn up the engine by accident.

Thanks all.

It's not a Jeep thing, it's not a Suzuki thing, or a Chevy,Ford thing.
It's a wheeling thing now get out and do it!
