Hey Peeps,

I have a seicento sporting, and it doesn't have a temperature guage on it. Do you know how it tells u that the temp is ok or too high?

is there any easy way of fitting a temp gauge?

cheers


Seicento Sportin... Maybe i'll get it off the drive... one day... maybe

i was under the impression that it was only base model cinqs that lacked a temperature gauage - i thought the same would be true with the sei.. so a sporting should have one.

Is there not a light that lights when you are overheating? check your dash for any bits that light that you've never seen on!

There's an overheating warning light, no Seis have a temp gauge fitted as standard. All you have to do on an SPI sei is buy a gauge and fit it, putting the sender in place of the standard switch. If you have the MPI one, the tapping is blanked off on the head - not sure if it's plugged or hasn't been drilled though.

If you buy a gauge, I'd recommend electric ones over mechanical capiliary gauges any day.

Where to buy this not second hand?

What is "2fast 2furious" ??

Peter

2 fast 2 furious, the film sequel to The Fast And The Furious. There were gauges made to cash in on the film, they look ok really.
My local motor factors sell them, try searching on the net to see what you can find in your area.
