REVIEWS:

Rated 2 out of 5 by Utah Series from Needle is jumpy The needle doesn't gradually increase as the engine temp does. After it finally registers the needle shoots up to 230 degrees and rapidly drops down to 180 but seems really jerky and not smooth as I would have suspected. It takes a while for the gauge to stabilize and work as it should.

QUESTIONS:

Do you have a capillary tube available that is longer than 6 foot?

Asked by: SC2825

We do not have an Old Tyme Black temperature gauge that comes with a longer capillary tube. However, you can give us a call and special order one with a longer capillary. Our sales team can be reached at 866.248.6356

I need a 1/4" npt probe. will this work or can an adapter be used? thanks

Asked by: douwe

Thank you for your inquiry. Our mechanical water temp gauges are not adaptable to 1/4" NPT. You can adapt the sender from our electric gauges to 1/4" NPT however. You might consider model 1737 in this application: https://www.autometer.com/2-water-temp-100-250-f-old-tyme-black.html
