Trouble with combined oil and water temp gauge.

[edd]

I'm a tad confused. This end of the temperature gauge won't fit the rear housing. Has anyone else fitted this type.
Many thanks Edd

I've not got one fitted, but IIRC isn't there a threaded adapter you use ?

Yes there is an adaptor. I got one from my local MG specialist.

Edd,

I think this is the cookie: 360787000271 on eBay

the kit from Paddocks had everything you need, and that adapter looks familiar. Even a numpty like me managed to fit one

Cheers guys and gals
So I think I will drive into town find somewhere to park for half hour then spend half hour getting out my gauge and explain to the guys my problem.
Only joking. Bought and paid for on e bay. That's just saved a whole lot of time I would never of found that.
Starting to pay for things out of pay pal balance. It feels good selling things on e bay not just buying.

Hi Edd. One to watch is that the transfer housing on some stags that you put the water sensor bulb in are of different sizes. If you are unlucky it will be too small. You can get a second hand one of the right size but your knuckles will suffer when you fit it!

Hi , thanks for that . At present my engine is out and all holes are drilled and taped in the housings so i,m sure they are all standard size , i,m most likely going to run two temp gauges for each head with one tucked away. That must be a hell of a job in situ .
Thanks again . Edd
