Re: {Chrysler 300} Question to temperature gauge 300 k

they are inherently not accurate things . once you get used to your car , where it runs is “normal “.

The idea is if you notice a change in that normal position check why . more modern cars are digital / accurate and pretty

close .. we get used to that .

Check temp at thermostat housing with IR gun .. not expensive and easy , then you know about where 180 or 190 is , on gauge , all is ok .

inaccurate thermal style gauges generally are more of a problem with fuel , such as where is really empty ?

I believe the owners manual will read that the needle anywhere along the box with the line through it is considered normal operating range and the empty boxes indicate cold and hot. When I ran into this on my 63 Galaxie I went to NAPA and bought every temperature sender listing they had, I think there were 5 listed and the third one I tried put the needle smack in the middle at a real 180 degrees.
