Help and suggestions for new water temp gauge

Work out what thread the existing sender in the head is and replace this with one to suit whatever gauge you buy. VDO do a good range of senders in a very wide variety of threads.

You do not want the sender in the top hose, you want it in the head. If for example your thermostat fails shut, with the sender in the top hose, you gaueg will read stone cold whilst in actual fact the engine is massively overheating. With the sender in the head it tells you the true engine temp.

Egauges.com are usually the cheapest even with shipping and delivery is also usually quicker than from uk based suppliers.

Was looking (and Gul[ping) at the SPA unit, when I was chatting to a mate he said "Ah got something you might use..."

Brand new in box - mssing sensor

Sensor ordered and will have a all singing dancing jobbie ....for not much more than a damned good take way for 2

Actually it was a Takeaway for 2, plus a bottle of Scotch :D

Thanks for all the input, ...somehow this is going in the manifold, ....even if the damned thing has to come apart again :(
