Default Hi oil temp ?

I have got a oil temp guage that is going crazy port motor reads about 215 to 230 after running hard the stbd motor has read as high as 320 but I know its not rite because I have checked them with a infared gun and they both read 215 . Do you think it is the guage or the sending unit ?

switch the wire from port to starbboard and vise versa.

I had the same problem. Switched the wires and fournd it was the gauge. Easy fix.
