Installing new guage.
Thanks Jim. I ordered a sender and oil temp gauge, a genset oil pressure gauge,
and a genset water temp gauge. I will see what arrives and let you know. If it's like yesterdays delivery, there will not be anything in the box. lol Leroy Eckert 1990WB-40"Smoke N Mirrors" Niceville, FL ----- Original Message ----- From: jim riordan To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, June 05, 2007 8:16 AM Subject: Re: [WanderlodgeForum] Installing new guage. Leroy, I just replaced many flaky guages on my coach. I got the new guage from BB. the indexing was different and better. I called BB (earl) to get the correct (new) sending unit he sent me the wrong one!an 028 I then called teleflex Joe Federsal and spoke to him he sent the correct one an 032, i called earl and told him that he needed to check with Teleflex about stocking the correct sending unit for this guage. The guage is better because it is more presise than the old one. Jim Riordan 88 WBWL XXV Leroy Eckert Thanks Howard: I'll give them a call.

Oil Temperature gauge 54438 Bluebird part number 3865334 shows to be in stock at Bluebird today. I will see if the indexing is the same when I receive it.
