Hello folks. I’m currently having an issue where my coolant temp gauge is being “told” that the engine is overheating on my ‘83 C10. As soon as you turn the ignition on the gauge immediately redlines, even with a cold engine. The temp sensor itself is new. I removed the wire from the temp sensor and it has the same result. The problem started after driving over a very rough gravel road that bounced the truck around pretty bad. Is it possible that something came loose that would cause a false reading on my gauge?
