Eric M Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 (edited) Hey folks, looking for a 1/2" -14 NPT coolant temperature sender and gauge kit. the one on my RV busted, i bought a new sender, but it still throws this light of "High Water Temp" even with changing the wire to the dash. So, im looking to replace everything. unplug this one, let it sit at "C" and attach a separate gauge for this. anyone else do this? know of the part to buy?

dl_racing427 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 I've had good luck with Auto-Meter gauges on my racecars. They're accurate, reasonably priced, and they make numerous different series gauges, so you may be able to find one that looks similar to your original, and will fit in the same hole. As far as the sender, most are 1/8 or 1/4 npt. Auto-Meter makes adapters to fit many other size ports, 1/2 npt among them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric M Posted June 30, 2020 Author Share Posted June 30, 2020 seems to work better, just need to figure out how to get the bubble out of the adapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the port faces up, warm th engine just enough to build slight pressure in the cooling system, then loosen the sensor to bleed the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
