Jagermeister Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 HI All. I have had the straight 8 totally rebuilt but when we went to attach the temp gauge capillary tube to the engine cylinder head it began to leak badly. Does anyone know of a source of these tubes or if they can be repaired? Or if anyone has a temp gauge with the tube attached that they want to sell. thanks in advance.

Mikefit Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Just a question. Did you just install the tube directly into the head ??? I think there is a adapter that goes in the head then the temp tube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefuly some remembers who does them. Mike, you might want to drop this down into the Buick forums. Some of those folks never come up here.
