Does anyone know of a way to test the temperature gauge to be sure its working correctly? Mine moves, but very, very little.

The one in the top of the radiator?

Cause mine looks like if you breath on it wrong it would break. Its all in tact though.

The one on top of the radiator is a level sender I think. They always seem to leak.

Yea thats right, the temp sender is on the drivers side of the engine( I think?)

Any way to test other gauges? Is there a web site for that or something?
