Midget Combo Gauge

[JoeV]

Hello All<

Anyone know how to adapt a aftermarket Temp gauge to the midget thermostat housing? the temperature sender seems too short to snug up to the adapter.
If I can't fit this gauge I guess I'll have to get a new gauge even though the oil pressure part works just fine. Anyone have any tips
Thanks
Joe

You might try contacting these folks:
Nisonger They specialize in rebuilding Smiths gauges and may be able to rebuild yours. Worth a shot.

I also found a place called gaugeguys.com
that is a Smiths dealer and has a new gauge for my little
Midge. Glad I found this forum!

Thanks for the tip Joe! Until now the only place I knew of was Nisonger's. Nice to know there are alternatives out there. BTW, I'm glad you found this forum too!

Let me know if you have any questions or problems.

Oh, and just a tip....when you post a web address, if you click the "URL" button while posting a message, it lets you enter the URL and the name of the site. Then, when you save your post it will provide a link that people can click. (The URL button appears along with some other "Instant UBB code" buttons just below the text window when you are tying a message.). I edited your post to make the gaugeguys site a link.

The basics are pretty straight forward, and there are a lot of other cool things you can do which you'll learn as you go (like posting pictures, sending private messages, etc.)

Enjoy
