Starting to have a problem. The temp gauge needle is twitching. It still works correctly and sweeps through its normal range when warming up. But lately, it is started to do this twitch. I believe it is either a bad connection or the temp sensor may be on its way out. And in worst case, the temp gauge it self maybe going. Sometime today, I will pull out the OBSII scanner and get a digital reading. I know from last time, normal running temp range is 194~199 *F. And the center of gauge is about 210*F. About where the needle is in the video is around 160*F.



Okay, I know I said TSR.com. Give me a break, its 2:45am in the morning. Just wanted more opinions before I go pull out the tool box.
