Title: wtb: coolant temp. gauge for IDI engine
Post by: ilikevwdiesel on March 21, 2011, 08:37:42 am

I have to buy a temp gauge for my AAZ rabbit truck. Does anyone here have a quality used gauge they want to sell or can anyone recommend a place to buy a GOOD one not some sunpro POS like I have now?

I have had excellent luck with my autometer stuff. There is a buy it now for a new one under 40.00 dollars shipped on that page. Summit racing sells them new for over 50.00

those are very nice but I think that may be a bit more than I'd like to spend. very nice. I'm leaning toward VDO.
