Re: Duel-Temp-sensor
You can bet Autometer or any of the big name manufacturers are
making the sending units as small as possible. Try connect it directly
to the thermostat housing in the stock position, then look for any codes
it throws, that may tell us it also needs the stock (anything in the
ball park sensor) reading.

Re: Duel-Temp-sensor
What kind or which model of gauge? Does it have the sealed tube with
the bulb end? If so autometer says it has the bulbs for the 3/8" sensor
holes on the one I looked at, you can just order a different tube.

Re: Duel-Temp-sensor
Thanks Mike, i just got back from the auto-parts store again, and after
argueing with him, andf looking in his book, i said the hell with it
and
got the electrical unit, after showing him that it DOES come with the
3/8 sender,
its she sport-comp series,
with what he had to refund me, i picked up the Volt meter,
im hoping the electrical unit is better than the stock one i have now,

Re: Duel-Temp-sensor
You are welcome. Jeep engines are way too common to have to do that
much work just for a mechanical gauge..... My CJ7 came stock with a
mechanical oil gauge. I 'like' that. I can tell when I am down a quart
even, the pressure drops a bit when hot.

much work just for a mechanical gauge..... My CJ7 came stock with a
mechanical oil gauge. I 'like' that. I can tell when I am down a quart
even, the pressure drops a bit when hot.

Re: Duel-Temp-sensor
You are welcome. Jeep engines are way too common to have to do that
much work just for a mechanical gauge..... My CJ7 came stock with a
mechanical oil gauge. I 'like' that. I can tell when I am down a quart
even, the pressure drops a bit when hot.
