Temp sensor

[kane2g]

I am kind of confused where to put the sensor for the water temp. Some people told me to put it somewhere in the block, but the new issue of Super street has it in the lower radiator hose. which on is it??
thanks

A pic would be nice if you have one.

remove the housing, drill out the bleeder screw and tap it for a new fitting

always best to put the temp sensor on the hot side of the cooling system so you know just how hot the motor is, and not how efficient the radiator is.

Juran out of Japan has radiator hose adapter fitting for temp sensors. you cut the hose and mount it inline, then screw the temp sensor intot he fitting.

try calling Autobacs in Hawaii to see if they have one for you.

Thats what super street used that hose with the fitting. it looked to me like a lower hose, but i might be wrong.
