my temperature gauge broke

i snapped the line that runs from the instrument cluster to the head.


does anybody have an extra that they are willing to trade or sell?

some of my extra parts include:
-duel solex carbs
-111 radiator
-111 windshield
-m180 engine core
-instrument cluster core
-other miscellaneous parts

one of the yards wants $99.00 for it and i don't have a free weekend to go pull one out myself.


oh,
this is for a 1963 220s with the cylindrical speedo

I don't have any extra Fintail guages but if you can't find a replacement, check out this Forum thread for other options -

mark,
thanks for the great lead...

repairing the old sounds like a fun project. have you heard of any success stories?

although,
it seems that once i buy the aftermarket ether filled gauge and modify to fit my gauge it may be worth just paying $100 at the yard (assuming i don't go pull one myself for less)

Call in sick, take the day off and go pull the guage. Just be carefull not to wring off that bulb and tube!

Happy Motoring, Mark
