Hi all and another hopefully lovely evening for all. I have a question regarding my 350 small block chevy, I just acquired. All of the coolant system has been rebuilt by the previous owner. He got stranded in the mountains and rebuilt the coolant system there. I know everything is done properly. However after he stayed the night in the mountains over night got below freezing the next morning and ever since the temp gauge dosnt work. It will go up literally a quarter tick and stop there nothing more... however the thermostat is brand new and worked up to the point of the frozen night. After that night the temp gauge no longer works again. What would cause this?
Also the previous owner said that ever since he has owned the truck the oil pressure gauge has never been "setup" any ideas as to what he could mean by this? Like is it just basically not there? Or not plugged in? At all times when the truck is running or off the oil pressure gauge says its MAXED out on oil pressure and I would like to be able to monitor where it's actually at.
