The temperature gauge on my 88 hasn't been working very reliably for some time now. It started acting funny last fall. Sometimes it works OK and other times it doesn't register at all. All my other gauges work fine (of course the ammeter is useless). I've changed complete clusters, just the temp gauge itself and last Saturday I changed the sending unit. After changing the sending unit I ran the car for 10 minutes and the gauge came right up. Sunday morning I go for a ride and nothing. Since then I've noticed it will move a little bit, up to the blue area in the cold zone. Should I just build the solid state IVR as shown in the tech articles or do I have a differant problem? Adding an aftermarket gauge is another solution, but I kind of hate to have two of the same gauges in the car.
Thanks for any input,
Rick
