1993 chevy 4.3 v6 1500 truck temp gauge inoperative,
Hey Mischelle==It is great sat this temp. If you want you can have a manual gauge installed temp to see if the electrical gauge is correct. The vibration is the rotors or possible the rear drums. Either one can be turned to get rid of it. GoodluckJoe
If you want a metric speedometer simply hold the info+return buttons down simultaneously for a few seconds, then you can switch to imperial units and vice versa. The better question is "where was that in the manual?" lol
Please note, Freon is the name of R-12 (Dichlorodifluoromethane) which was used prior to the change in 1993 to R134A (hydrofluorocarbon). Your Chevy does not use Freon, it uses the refrigerant R134A. If you are planning on servicing it yourself, I would suggest getting a dispenser with a gauge on it. The one thing you do not want to do is overcharge a system. You can purchase R134A from a local auto parts store.
Are you sure its the gauge? A quick easy test is to ground the wire to the block. The gauge should sweep to HOT and peg. If it doesnt then the gauge cluster has to be replaced. Not real sure if you can purchase just the temp gauge in the cluster though. I think it comes as one complete package. This would require some dash removal. Not dificult but time consuming. If you want to go the cheaper route you can always mount a separate temp gauge.
I want to know the same thing for my CHevy 1993 G20 Beauville Van. All I know is it's location is the Firewall. Where's that? Do you have to take off the engine compartment inside the van??
You Want This was created in 1993.

If your heat gauge still isn't working after replacing the sensor and thermostat, check the wiring and connections for any damage or corrosion. You might also want to inspect the gauge itself for faults or consider testing the vehicle's computer for error codes. Additionally, ensure that the coolant level is adequate, as low coolant can affect gauge readings. If these steps don't resolve the issue, consulting a professional mechanic may be necessary.
yes make sure the exhuast heat riser passages in the heads that go through the intake have the gasket insert the same way as the tbi setup. why would you want the tbi ?
The Oil you want to use is 15W-40, if your truck is higher mileage I use Amsoil's Heavy truck/ Marine 15W40
