I have the aftermarket sending unit with the original gauge in my truck. It reads about 70% to the right so it appears to be hot, but running the other gauge for a while seeing that it's running on average 185 degrees, I've learned thats where it reads. I have the original sending unit just waiting for a brain fart so I can use it.
