I drove my 66 tonight and on the way home noticed the temp rising slowly over normal . I wasn't far from home but within a minute or two the temp went from 200 to the red zone so I pulled over to find the car not overheating.
By the time I dropped the hood and looked at the gauge again it was off the chart almost to the 2-3 oclock position. Did my gauge just die or could something have caused it? I had pulled the lead off the sending unit and even pulling battery power the gauge is now still buried. Is this what happens if the gauge goes bad?
