#79158, "Egt gauge problems, please help"




          

Just lately my egt gauge has been acting weird. For like the first ten mintues of driving my car the needle will sit only at 600 and when I hit the gas it shoots right past 1600 instantly. After a little while it will finally start to act normal sometimes. Do you think this is a wiring problem or possibly a bad probe?

Check the wiring. Most of the time EGT gauge problems can be traced to a loose or inadequate grounding connection for the gauge.

The only problem I had with an EGT gauge was with my old Autometer Lunar gauge were the probe wires melted to the EGR tube. The gauge definately acted strange when that happened.
