If you do buy a Rochester gauge like the one Arash identified, don't forget to test it/check its accuracy before you install it. These gauges are not the most accurate gauges in the world even when new. So it's good to know how it reads before you install it. A check at different temps like you did with your current gauge would be perfect and useful for the future.
