Installing new guage.
Jim,
Yep, that is the correct gage, Teleflex # 9153278. The BB# 54438 was still a good number, But they shipped the updated 9153278 gage , Then the temp would read really high, That is why there is a lot of confusion , when replacing gages, the sensor must be replaced also. I like the new scale for the oil temp,200 to 230 Not so good for the rear axle because, it only heats up to about 140 to 170. lowest part of the gage.

He sent me a "superseded" one the index numbers were different. He sent me a new sensor it was for the old type guage it was reading 40% high. I called Teleflex spoke to Joe Federsal (great help) he sent me the correct sensor for the guage that I got from earl, everything seems to work now. This new guage 9153278 is improved in that it first register point is at 140 rather than 100, top is 320 like the old one. the end result is that the gauge will provide more accurate readings in the operational range than the old one.
