I check those links as with the autozone ones. Same ones actually. They dont show the connector to teh cluster.

Focus is to find out the wiring for temp gauge.

Here is what we know:
sender old and new = no difference. correct gauge sensor installed
ground out sender, gauge pins (12 o'clock)
remove forced ground, gauge drops to "0" or 100
engine is properly grounded to frame and body.
Gauge does sweep upon cracking and them returns to "0" when running.
Issue, temp gauge steadily increases and does not reflect actual engine temp as checked by heat gun. Gauge will go beyond 260 w/in 1 min running from cold. 220 in rough;y 30 sec, 150 in about 20 sec of running.

trying to find electrical diagram to check wiring and even test gauge. Have a feeling one of the coils on the gauge is acting up and or there is a poor connection somewhere from the sender to gauge.
