Hi Gee,
Need a temp gauge for my M38.
SW 505-A
AC 1512422
ORD 7389567
Only these work with my sender.
Could use more than one, NOS preferred.
Regards,
Mike

Best to indicate the Temperature range and that Douglas Connectors is required. The Temperature Range on the Gauge you require is 60F to 260F which will match your OEM Sender. A Gauge with range of 120F-240F will not work with your sender. I may be able to help after April. NOS 1950's 1960's OEM gauges do not always survive 50-60 years on the shelf for whatever reason.

Yes, 60F-260F is the range, Douglas connectors preferred. Thanks!
