The temp is a one piece deal the tube is part of the gauge. If it is cut or broken the whole unit will have to be replace or rebuilt.

The temp is a special fitting. Some of the Bolters probably have one on an old engine. I,m going to canabolize ? one this saturday. I,ll see if it has the fittings on it.

The capillary version must be replaced with the gauge (I still have to do this) but I imagine that an electronic one can just run a new wire to the sender. I would appreciate any further input here since I have to mate the capillary (GMC) gauge with my chevy engine. | | |
