Arrow Mix and match gauges and sender?

JUst a quick question. i just got some autometer water temp and oil pressure gauges for cheap. they dont have senders, but I have some senders from a megan racing and a sunpro gauge laying around. Theyre all electric, do you think I can use the senders or is there a chance they read/ouput different ranges?

Don't know if the senders match off hand, but Autometer does sell replacement senders for their gauges. Not too expensive either.

It's highly unlikely they'll read correctly. Get the right sender for the gauge.
