Hello, I've got my 8v GTi engine fitted and running but I'm not having any joy with the temperature gauge, has anyone manged to get the T25 gauge to function with a GTi sender? if so which sender did you use (there are 3). I'm a bit reluctant to drive it until I can monitor the temperature.

Mine has a carb inline 4 in it and I had the same problem - in the end I used the sensor from the Wasser engine which looks nothing like the original but fitted straight in (not sure if the GTI is the same but on the one I have there is a sensor in a plastic moulding on one of the inline engine's water fittings held in by the same sort of clip as on the wasser - I swapped the Wasser one for this).
