2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Are all PYRO sending units created equal?

[MrDiesel]

In other words... if I have a guage made by AutoMeter can I use any pyrometer sender from another brand, and visa-versa? Or are they brand-specific?

My guess is that the pyrometer sender needs to match that Mfg's gauge. The sender generates a very small voltage due to the bimetalic element inside, and one mfg is probably not the same as the next mfg.

Of course that's a guess, and probably worth what you paid for it!

for some reason i thought they where all the same values? but not sure why i thought that

I agree with Charles probably brand specific #@$%!#@$%!#@$%!#@$%!
