The Bently instructions for testing it say that up to one needle width
of variation is normal.  If your old gauge was a bit on the high side
and this one was a little on the low side, that could account for the
change.  I've noticed the temp gauge is really sensitive to corrosion on
the connectors, too -- corrosion makes it read low.
