to my surprise the gauges all work. water temp was in the middle. oil preasure was 30lbs at idle (with fresh 10-40 oil) and went up to 50-60 when i hit the gas. amps looked good although i dont know how that works since the truck is 12 volt?! i let the truck run for a good 15-20 min this morning
Amps are amps. They don't care about volts. So long as your amps look good, you should be golden.
The oil pressure seems a little high, but then again, I can't remember what nominal pressure is on a 235 (I'm running a 216).
