Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
This gage shows the engine coolant temperature.
It also provides an indicator of how hard your vehicle
is working. During a majority of the operation, the gage
will read 210°F (100°C) or less. If you are pulling a
load or going up hills, it is normal for the temperature
to uctuate and approach the 250°F (122°C) mark.
If the gage reaches the 260°F (125°C) mark, it indicates
that the cooling system is working beyond its capacity.

weight of optional accessories. Some examples of
optional accessories are, automatic transmission,
power steering, power brakes, power windows,
power seats, and air conditioning.
Aspect Ratio
