Red110 Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Hello, I am Pedro, new to the forum. Former owner of a Puma 110, proud owner of a 88 2A and currently turning my 90 200 Tdi into a 4.0 GEMS V8 auto. I want to swap the dash to a Td5 style one, buy I´d prefer an all-VDO set up. After reading the fantastic work by Retroanaconda and many old posts, I still have several doubts that I would love to work out. - I understand I don´t need any special sender for a Float arm fuel gauge (240-30 Ohms) 30101002? - The right temp sender is 1/8 NPT and the gauge 120ºC 310010002? - Can I fit the Speedo straight with a Td5 speed transducer, or do I need anything else done? Thanks so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex Member Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Yes on the fuel gauge. Maybe on the temperature sender. The other possibility is 5/8" UNF. If it looks small, it is 1/8" NPT and if large, then 5/8" UNF. Yes on the speedo and transducer. FYI, the stock TD5 gauges and senders are made by VDO.

Red110 Posted March 12, 2018 Author Share Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) Thank you Red90 I got the temp sender data in some American forum, ref 323 095, although I read here in an old post that the ref is 323 417. I´ll order both and let you know. I was more worried about the speedo . It´s great to find out it´s so easy! Everything fitted with a Td5 wiring loom YMG109280, right?

Ex Member Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 You do not need to order both. Just look at what is on the engine. It should be obvious. I have no idea if the TD5 wiring loom will work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red110 Posted March 12, 2018 Author Share Posted March 12, 2018 I wish I could Red90, but I am getting the engine from UK and would like to have as many parts as possible ready for when it arrives. I will certainly wait for more expensive parts. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Fitted a VDO temp gauge + sender to the 127, the P38 temp sender is 1/8" BSP/NPT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
