It's possible Jim but most aftermarket gauges need their own sender units/temperature sensors to function correctly.
What's actually wrong with your current temperature gauge? Have you investigated the sensor/sender unit? Have you tested the gauge itself works? Is your engine just running cold because it needs a new thermostat maybe?
Diesels are well known for taking a long time to warm up and even when being driven, unless they're driven hard, often dont get up to full working temperature which means they never get to their full efficiency.
Does the existing temp gauge move at all?
