My old Lex had 2 sensors both though on the top hose - I.e. measuring the temp before the 'stat opens.

tbh the best place to use is what the rally/racing cars do tap in to the block but for a normal road car top hose will do fine....

15-06-2017, 12:08 AM #10i'm not sure mate, i ended up ordering a couple as i wasnt sure, remember the wall of the pipe will be quite thick so the bore may well be a fair bit smaller than the overall diameter.
