How about this for wacky:
My temp gauge goes up to a certain point then starts going down when it is getting hot. I have a separate new oil temp probe so I know which way things are trending. This is probably age related and perhaps a Toyota speciality. I know in kilns the bi-metal temperature probes change over time so you have to test them every once in a while.
Good idea, this alert. |
I've seen some FLUKE digital temp meters relatively cheap at pawn shops lately.'Thought I might pot the thermocouple near original sending unit for a "second source" of data.---------- Also,a rotary switch would allow multiple feeds from additional thermocouples at oilpan,trans,differential,etc.------------- Sounds as if the original gauge setups on many cars are of dubious value.
