2-1/16in C/S Water Temp. Gauge 120-260 Deg.

The 2-1/16in C/S Water Temp. Gauge 120-260 Deg. by AutoMeter is a mechanical temperature monitoring instrument designed for serious engine builders, performance mechanics, and automotive enthusiasts who demand real-time coolant temperature feedback. This gauge is essential for tuning modified engines, diagnosing thermal management issues, and providing accurate data beyond factory dashboard readings.

With a temperature range of 120–260 degrees Fahrenheit, this gauge allows for direct readings from the cylinder head or block, helping to inform critical tuning decisions and prevent overheating. The mechanical design improves durability and reliability under engine vibration and heat cycling, eliminating the need for fragile capillary tubing found in older models. The clear dial markings and responsive needle movement make it easy to monitor temperature changes.

Street rodders, drag racers, and engine swap builders rely on this gauge for both forced-induction and naturally aspirated applications where factory cooling systems may be inadequate. Installation requires a compatible sender unit, typically mounted directly to the engine block or cylinder head for accurate readings.
