Saw a kit available with a new temp guage with numbers and and a new oil temp sender for under 100.00 . Any body do this one ? looks prety simple . I think it would eb a nice touch.
Also with my oil right between the middle of high and low on dipstick idling with the oil warmed up my oil level guage shows right on the line between the red and white. Is this normal or do I need a new sender for the oil tank ? I know it shouldn't matter as I use the dip stick but it just bugs me having that needle right on the red ....
Thanks guys

The oil temp gauge is a nice upgrade. As you indicated, the the sender must be replaced at the same time as they are gauge specific. When you remove the old on, you will see there are temp numbers on the gauge, hidden by the bezel.
Regarding the oil level gauge, to say it may be anywhere near accurate is a gross exageration. Ig nore it except to use as arough estimate. Oil level readings must be taken at the dip stick, with the car on a level surface, warmed, running engine.
