Water temperature sensor

[Leo B]

Hi, I threw over year ago old temperature sensor when I rebuilt engine and ordered new sensor. Dont remember from where but from Stude part Vendor or Rockauto anyway. Intalled that and my water temperature Gauge does not work. With zero resistance shows maximum so technically ok.
a) I measured sensor resistance and ohm meter shows water boiling temperature 170 Ohms. Is this correct?
b) I found article that Stude Avanti sensor should be in boiling water about 56-58 Ohms. I this correct #1545220?

Did Steward Warner Gauge in Avanti 1963 use a) or b) version sensor?

 

Edit...
Seems I found the answer. S/W Gauge is for 33 – 240 Ohms. b) Sensor #1545220 should be correct. a) Dont know which one I have. Looks very same.
