Hi all,
I've recently removed a 2.5VM engine and box from my Hybrid 90 and replaced it with a 3.5EFI and 4 speed auto from a donor rangey. The engine in the rangey was perfect, sitting at halfway on the temperature gauge no matter what. Since the engine has been put in to the 90 and the temp sender on the V8 connected to the 90's temperature gauge, the temperature gauge reads just below red. The engine temperature is fine with the thermostat opening correctly and the radiator is fine. Is the temperature gauge on a 90 calibrated differently to that of a rangey? If so, any suggestions since although I know the engine is cooling correctly, its a bit off putting when you glance down at the gauge!
Cheers
