Timothy, left you a note regarding Carly further up in this thread. Believe you should read oil temp picking another parameter. Your gauge might still turn out ok.

Fetched it for you:
Timothy, did you try "Output value for motoroeltemperature"? I find this to correlate very well with my gauge. While the "Motor temp" seems to be coolant, coming up sooner in temp but staying below the oil temp.
Never got the "Coolant" on Carly to work btw but pretty sure above gives whats needed i.e oil and coolant temp separately.

Cheers
