Our gauges still work in our '03 Classic.
But it did take awhile to learn/guesstimate when exactly we would run out of FW...it could show red for up to four days. 🙄
We finally learned to depend on the water pump, when it wouldn't shut off we knew we needed to fill-up.😂
The black & grey gauges we managed to keep working with a thorough fill & flush after each trip.
I've found it best to not dump the black without driving 100mi or so to really mix the crap up. SFSG.
The
GEO METHOD helps also.
