MG Midget and Sprite Technical - temperature gauge stop working

hi,

had a new rad/hoses/thermostat fitted this week to my 1500 midget. have a problem with a valve outlet pipe (other thread on here), so to get round it so the car can be used the heater valve has been bypassed (hoses to and fro heater connected directly).

car was fine for a 10 mile run couple of days ago, then the same yesterday but then suddenly the temperature gauge stop working. any ideas? could it be a faulty thermostat?

help!

Unlikely to be faulty thermostat, I think.

Is it an electric gauge or capillary?
