Temperature Gauge Inspection; Temperature Gauge Reassembly - Suzuki RG250 Service Manual

4-11 COOLI NG SYSTEM
INSPECTION
Test the temperature gauge senser at the bench to
see if its ohmic value changes, as specified, with
temperature. The test is to be run as follows:
Connect the temperature gauge to the ohmmeter
and place it in the oil contained in a jar, which
is placed on a stove; heat the oil to raise its
temperature slowly, reading the thermometer
placed in the jar and also the ohmmeter. A temper-
ature gauge whose ohmic value does not change in
the proportion indicated in the next page must be
replaced.

If the resistance noted to show infinity or too
much different resistance value, temperature gauge
must be replaced.
For inspecting the water temperature meter, refer
to page 6·13.
REASSEMBLY
Apply SUZUKI Bond No. 1207B to the thread
