The temperature guage on my L3010 has always reads low. I ordered a new temperature sending unit with my last order of filters. I know my eye sight isn't what it used to be and my hands no longer fit easily into tight spaces but .... I can't figure out where it is installed, even with the WSM diagrams. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

First place I'd look would be on the head, back side of block (opposite the fan) in the very right corner (by the firewall). Not familiar with your tractor specifically, but it should come straight up and easy to see and get to.

Thanks D2Cat. That.is the area I was looking. I was trying to find the wire. I'll try again with a bright light.
