temp gauge problem



hey all,

i have a problem with my engine temp gauge - in that it doesn't work!
i have posted before about the problem, and here is the latest on the 
situation - i've done everything that everyone has suggested -

anyway, my temp gauge is stuck at the first tick. it will not go up or down, 
and it won't move when you put the key in the ignition. it just says there. 
i replaced the temp sending unit - no luck. i tried hitting the dash a 
little bit, didn't drop down. i used a paperclip to knock the needle down. it 
went down, but then when i put the key in the ignition, it went right back up 
to where it was before!!!

anyone have a good idea on what the problem is? the last things to check are, 
in my knowledge, replacing the gauge (last resort), or a wiring problem. is 
there a way to bypass the stock wiring and just put a jumper between two 
points to prove whether or not i have a wiring problem?

thanks for any advice, as always!
Andy
