The Trans temp sensor isn't in the line with the new lines. I can't even find the harness that used to be on the oem lines.



I made a mistake about the size of line that was installed. I have 3/8 lines not 5/16 lines. sorry.



Today I hooked up my oem trans cooler in addition too the aftermarket cooler. Went and done a test run of 20 miles total. my temp gauge wouldn't get over 100*, but that might be because it was around 55* out and the wind was blowing to.



Beleive it or not, down here in Florida with the humity and a cold front it can cut though your carrharts pretty quick. Ive had to wear them the last two to three days. I run heavy equipment all day, and at the end of the day your face can get wind burnt.

Where is your sender for the gauge located?

The sending unit is installed on the transmission.

The transmission Temp gauge sending unit is installed on the passengers side of the transmission where the instructions shown from TST products recomended. I forgot what port it is but it's suppose to be the actual temp inside the transmission.



I think I read somwhere that the fluid coming out of the transmission is much hotter, than the port that TST says to install the sending unit. I'm not shure

I'm not sure how much hotter the fluid would be in the hot line going to the cooler.
