have you traced the wires to check if they're split? |

I've got the same prob in my bush basher, which worries me 'cause I don't want to cook the motor. It worked before we hauled the motor out and back in, so maybe a plug has come loose somewhere? |

You can check if the gauge is working by shorting out the sender wire (the one that goes to the temp sender under the inlet manifold) to earth. When you short out the wire, the gauge will read maximum.
If it doesnt move, then either the gauge or wiring is fuckt.
