    That'd be fine... It just wont register anything until you get close to operating temp, which won't take too long... and if you want it to read anything higher than 250 than you are going to have major issues far beyond your temp gauge!! LOL... So yeah I would say that should be a fine temp gauge, so long as you dont mind waiting a little bit until you get any indication on the gauge..

    That is a capillary tube. Do not cut it. You can unwind it to fit your space. Cut it and you buy a new gauge.

    Cap tube is better. But make sure you protect it where it comes in contact with anything
