The car is a 1990 GT, anyone know what the resistance of the temp sender is when cold and when hot? I have a temp gauge that eventually pegs out but the car isn't over heating. Figure it's either the sender of the windings on the gauge.

I guess it's time for a new stock gauge. I hate restorations...</P>
