factory guage sending units - Diesel Forum

Is anyone using the stock sending units for analog guages? I know the digital guages access the stock sending unit info from the obd port, wasn't sure if they could be used for analog guages by tieing into the wire harness.
I have seen pics of guage installation of the 7.3l, but not of the 6.4l. Also where is the pyrometer for the 6.4, and does the ecm defuel if the egt's go past a certain temp?

No, it won't work. You can get gauges that read the data on the OBD port, which uses those senders. But you can't wire the stock senders to gauges and get any useful readings.
