How to install aftermarket mechanical temp guage
In order to install a mechanical gauge, you need to remove the temperature sender and replace it with a fitting that allows you to install a probe that connects to the new gauge via a copper pipe. I believe you can find an adapter fitting that will allow you to reinstall your old sending unit so your dash gauge will remain operational. But its pretty basic stuff. Find a suitable place in the firewall to run the copper pipe, and suitable place in the car for the gauge to hang.
Thanks for the reply but my cable from aftermarket guage isent long enuff because i have temp guage in a a piller set up so i dident know if there was a diffrent plice to install it
The factory one needs to be left in plice for the computer to read i just want a more percise one installed. I aready have it ran thrugh the fire wall and ready to find a spot to screw it in too.
