Car Forum / Alfa Romeo Cars / October 2004oil temp gauge
Hi, My oil temperature gauge has never been above 80 degrees C on motorway driving, in the city it's closer to 70 C. It's that normal? (Or what is it supposed to show?) Also, can anyone tell me where I find the switch for the boot light? (as the bulb seems to be fine) thanks, Christian, Denmark 1994 Alfa Romeo 155 2.0 TS > From: Christian Petersen <argonster@hotmail.com> > Organization: TDC Totalloesninger [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > driving, in the city it's closer to 70 C. > It's that normal? (Or what is it supposed to show?) I assume you mean water temp gauge? I've never found mine to be particularly accurate in terms of what they're measuring, I just keep an eye on whether they make any extreme movements IYSWIM. ie, my 164 stays constant at about 70° and my Dad's at 90° but I reckon the engines are running at much the same temperature, just one of us (probably me) is badly calibrated. > Also, can anyone tell me where I find the switch for the boot light? > (as the bulb seems to be fine) > > thanks, > Christian, Denmark > 1994 Alfa Romeo 155 2.0 TS > I assume you mean water temp gauge?

I did mean the oil temp gauge. The water temp gauge is stable at 90 C. thanks, Christian > From: Christian Petersen <argonster@hotmail.com> > Organization: TDC Totalloesninger > Newsgroups: alt.autos.alfa-romeo > Date: Wed, 27 Oct 2004 16:53:33 +0200 > Subject: Re: oil temp gauge > I did mean the oil temp gauge.
