Anyone ever have a temp gauge read really high?

I ordered a rad through Amazon, was supposed to be April 27, installed it this weekend, so a crap shoot. Still nothing on there is overly special, except Autometer gauges and too pricy. At least now the temp doesn't swing wildly like the half plugged rad, an Equus gauge will do this car.

Put the sender in a pot of boiling water. It should read 212. That is pretty high and accurate.

I will do that.

Except for the fact that everything Amazon considers non essential is 1 month shipping.

Edit: I understand why, just annoying that you couldn't even opt to pay for your item to be shipped via snail mail.

I ordered stuff on March 29 and they said delivery date was April 30, I got an email yesterday say the product was ship and delivery date is now April 8. It's all non essential stuff.
