My dash guage is not working at all. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to start looking ? :scratch:

Take the wire off from the sender on the engine. Ground it to the engine and see if the reading changes. It should go hard one way to the other when you do that. If it does then your sender is bad. I paid 70 bucks for mine last year. I broke mine when I pulled out the engine.

Where's the sender located on the engine Richie ? I have one on the side of the block and two located on the top of the head.

Its on the drivers side of the engine almost to the rear. It is a pretty big pipe thread if I remember correctly.
