rebuilt head now no temp guage

Post by Lostinconformiti »

so i had my uncle who is a certified mechanic do a complete head rebuild on my car (stupid timing belt) but now my temperature gauge suddenly is not functioning after we have got it back on the road. can some one take a picture of where the temperature gauge is in a 2.2l leganza is so i can check and if needs be replace it. the guage has not moved in a week. so obviously neither has the car. my girlfriend is tired of driving me to work so any help is apriciated. thanks guys.

the thermostat is a simple thing to replace, looking from the front of the car it is on the left side of the cylinder head. When i had mine changed they also found the actual guage was faulty too

the thermostate is not the same device as the temp sensor.
