Temperature gauge customization on L185

[Fritiof_von_schnabel]

Hi!

I'm tempted to install a temperature gauge on my L185. Does anyone have any suggestions on best to do it?

Right rear of the head pull plug and replace with temp sensor.

Another way to skin the cat is to cut the top radiator hose - insert this aluminum "TEE" and place the sensor in there

make sure you use the grounding screw to make the electrical connection.

- the head method is easy when the fittings fit perfectly.

The hose method requires the correct ID on the hose.

Both do the job well.
