Water Temperature Gauge

Post by uoapsdb »

As opposed to the oil temperature guage.

During a run, the water temp guage can operate normally for a while, then will display 0, then displays the temp again.

My immediate thought was that the water was a bit low.

Please can someone explain how to check the water level, I can't see a mark in the reservoir.

Should it be at the bottom of that plastic cylinder in the resrvoir, top, middle or what ?

Thanks Steve

Temp going up and down couid be one of a few things,

: Airlock,
:Faulty Thermostat,.
: No thermostat, (someone Removed it )
: Faulty temp sensor,
