Hello. I hope this is the correct place to post this. I can't figure out how to disconnect the temperature sensor line from the gauge at the dashboard. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
Mike

Hello, Mike

In each new post indicate the make, year, and model truck
(and, indicate if the part/equipment is original style/type equipment).

Mike, chances are that it does not "disconnect". Don't know what you are doing but you probably have to pull the sender and feed it and tubing thru firewall, or pull gauge and take out cluster. If that is what you are trying to do. I think if was electric, you would not ask.

DO NOT CUT THE TUBE, it is part of a gas filled sealed system with a bulb down in the engine head...here's a picture of the gauge with bulb.
