New Isspro gages and Windshield mount

[SVenable]

I got my Massdiesel cooler line and gage working (finally). The Massdiesel cooler line that I received had a short nipple into a Tee on one end (Female-Female-Female), and then on the far end of the Tee was where the temp sensor screwed in. The top of the Tee had a plug. I had to ground the sensor, but that didn't help. I found out that the DiProcol temp sensor basically hit the bottom of the tee and only the tip of the probe was wet with oil. That explains why I couldn't get it to work. Combination of not wet with oil, too far from the main line cooler tube, and not grounded.



I replaced everything with the Isopro gage, which takes 2 wires to the probe and thus doesn't need grounding. I also removed the old brass fittings and redid them this way. Screwed a TEE directly into the port. The TEE I got was a Female-Male-Female. Screwed the Male portion of the TEE directly into the port. Plugged one end of the Female portion of the TEE. Screwed in the ISOpro sensor in the other Female portion of the TEE. The result was that the probe was wet with oil, and was about 1/2" at most from the main line. Gage works great.



If you can't follow my description of the TEEs, let me know and I can take some pictures.

I'll have to try that when I get the time. I am back in the rear test port right now.
