I hooked up a pyro gauge today followed all the insructions and the gauge worked fine when i first started the truck...I drove it down the street and the EGTs went to 1600 wright away and wouldnt go any lower..The truck is all stock so what am i missing? Its a autometer gauge with an autometer, i think competition probe... Any help would be great..

Bad ground or bad probe?

Maybe just a bad probe. Does the pyro have a signal amplifier box - that could be bad. Could be a loose connection or bad ground. I'd call Autometer and see if they have any suggestions.

Sorry we couldn't help you quicker. We need an icon for "I'm thinking about it and when I come up with an answer that makes sense I'll share"

I was thinking about a bad connection but was not familar with the autometer set up.
