Hi Mike, I just changed the ones on my H and M. The old ones were cheap aftermarkets and were both junk. I thought the one on the M was working, but it turned out the engine vibration was moving the needle. If one of them was working I would be glad to send one your way, butttt. If you find one on a junk yard you may be able to fix it if it has corrosion on the end that goes into the water jacket and doesn"t work and get it for free. Those gauge tubes are filled with ether and solderd shut I was told. the amount of ether added sets the working range so it may take a few times to get it right unless you can find out the exact amount to add. If a gauge has a bent or kinked capillary tube it is a nightmare to fix. You could end up with a decent original for as little a $5.
