Where did you route your Mechanical Water Temp Gage capillary tube ???
|
which side of the motor? if its on the drivers side, i'd use the speedo hole?

I mounted the sender in the Water Pump Housing neck, where the TB coolant return used to be
|
I routed mine on the passenger side where the wiring harness passes thru the firewall, super easy, no holes needed
to be drilled, mine was a 7/8" fitting so I was relieved not to have to drill holes. I just took a screwdriver, gently pushed the boot that protects the wires downward, then shoved a snake in the hole attatching the sender to the other end of the snake, pulled it thru and was done. Just have to watch how long the tubing is, 6' is just enough to mount to the center console. |
maybe use one of the ac holes? its a little closer

UPDATE!!!!!. Don't try to save a buck or two on gages. Since $$$$ was tight last week I purchased a SUNPRO brand Mechanical Temperature Gage to Install. I was getting a discrepancy between the Stock Gage and the Sunpro, which is mounted in the Water pump housing outlet. When I was running 230º on the way home last night, I went to lowes and picked up another Digital meat thermometer to check the SUNPRO.
AMB Temp: 93º Stock Gage: ~1/3 Sunpro: 210º Accurite Meat Thermometer: 184º Needless to say the SUNPRO is going back and a Autometer is going in! BTW, I run Evans NPG+ so I need a mechanical vice the electrical gage due to the non-conductivity of the coolant |
