Wasted a whole day
Well seeing how most everyone is lock up on their home steads I wasted a whole day today on the speed warning speedometer that was give to me. I had taken it out of the 3 hole cluster and installed it in my 7 hole once I got the new tach.
Well I started installing it this morning at 9:30, I just finished and it's back on the work bench in the garage.  When I went to install it I stopped once I had the oil line hooked up and tach and the electrical stuff done to check it all before finishing. Glad I did I had no water temp reading... what the heck I didn't touch it. So I pulled it back out and looked it all over thinking I missed something. Spent 2 hrs and 2 gauges later and nothing. So I went a head and installed it all to go for a drive and check the speedometer. Guess what...it didn't work either it bounces all over the place, I guess the spring is gone I'm not sure. So I drove it back home took it out again and put the old speedometer back in it. I just have come inside form putting it back together. I decided to go a head and do a thermostat swap also. The water temperature gauge is working again. It's been a long day!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nhfn4b0rWs0
