'70 C10 Temp Gauge Max Hot, Why?

[CKfan]

Thanks to Pjmoreland's directions, I finally got everything back together and working perfectly.

Only thing I did different than the directions was add a hex nut over the push nut to make sure it stayed pressed down for grounding (seen in the bottom of photo #1). Gauge is really tight now.

Each of the other posts have flat washer, lock washer and a nut as they are supposed to.

Thanks to all on this thread. Process of elimination solved this issue inexpensively.
