Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

    Tempature Guage

    My tempature guage is pegged on hot, what sensors will cause it to do that?

    Are you sure it's a faulty sensor?

      Common problem with cbs, thermostat should be the first one to check.

        jumping to conclusions!

        First does the temp gauge go hot before the engine is turned on with engine cold... key on engine off.

        If so then you have a faulty sensor or a problem with wiring.

        If not and it rises normally with engine temp increasing but continues to rise and pegs on hot...

        first check for fan operation. if ok then check thermostate as it may not be opening.

          If it's truly "pegged" to high, that implies a faulty coolant temperature sensor or a bad connector/connection to me.
