Rob,
The simultaneous immersion of the operating (and grounded) temp sender/voltage
regulator/gauge system versus a standard IS the best method. It's an end-to-end
test, so it won't isolate the problem alone, but it will tell you if you have
one. A hot plate and some jumber wires to the pot of water with the
car-grounded
sender, tip immersed in water along with thermometer, IS the best way.

BTW: That regulator is often the culprit. They are cheap enough to just
replace, if you are suspicious.
