Transmission temerature question?

[Leroy Eckert]

Tom:
If your gauge happens to be indexed 100-320 look in the forum files under
Teleflex gauge and sender cross and see if it fits your system. I would still
try to contact Joe Federsel. If no response, West Marine has helped me find the
answer on these issues.

Rob and Leroy,

Thanks for the reply. So it seems like mine is running hotter than it
should be! Now I just need to figure out why? The water temperature
is fine, 190 with fan cycling as needed.Now I just need to figure out
why? I guess my next step would be to get the cooler cleaned real
well. Any other suggestions?

Rob,
The rally is going to be great! twelve coaches, weather is perfect,
fall foilage, plenty to do in the area, good resturants, FMCA has a
rally in the same campground, with all their stuff.
And all the Disney characters will be there! Brisket Boy, Tent Boy
etc..
Next year plan to be in the North East Columbus day weekend!
