JC
Whitney Its a Cyberdyne
Transmission. Temperature gauge. Search for Catalog # 47ZU0266B,
$35.99 and the senders Catalog # is 47ZU0271B, $15.99
Back side view showing the
gauge and 12 position switches. . Yes its gauge comes in a round
case. I took the guts out of the round case, shaped the red lens
to fit the LEDs and mounted right on the back of the dash. For
the transmission,

Temperature sender mounted
in the transmission fluid cooling line just as it exits the transmission.
Parts used for
mounting of the probe on the heater hose as it comes out of the
block. By cutting about 2 inches from the black hose and adding
a fitting with the temperature probe and short threaded fitting.
This was a simple install. The probe was originally installed
on the air bleeder port where the top radiator hose fitting is.
The disadvantage with the probe in the air vent port is that
there is a low flow of coolant there until the T-stat opens.
In the new location, temperature readings are more precise.
Old mounting of
temperature probe for engine coolant
Plug removed for
oil temperature probe.
Oil temperature
probe installed.
Just a 1/2 inch
to 1/8 inch pipe fitting was all that was needed to mount the
probe.
By drilling open
the back side of the pipe fitting to allow oil to flow around
the probe. This give faster readings in change of temperature.
While digging around
the toolbox, this valve was found to be a perfect air bleeder
valve to replace to temperature probe.
Installed
a temperature sender in the Rear Differential.
