🔧 Product Description

Genuine Faria Chesapeake White SS Water Temperature Gauge - Catalogue Number: 13804

A genuine Faria Beede 2-inch water-temperature gauge originally fitted to a Mustang boat dashboard. The instrument is part of Faria's Chesapeake White Stainless Steel series and is calibrated from 100°F to 250°F.

The gauge displays engine coolant or cylinder-head temperature from a compatible electrical temperature sender. It is used on petrol and diesel marine engines where the sender curve matches the gauge.

• Needle immediately moves to maximum temperature

• Reading changes when the sender wire or ground is moved

• Gauge and sender calibrations do not match

• Corroded terminals create intermittent readings

• Backlighting or lens condition has deteriorated
