arayray Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 I am looking to relocate my autometer coolant temp sensor to the block for better ground, my coolant crossover delete doesn't provide a ground and I had to solder a ground to it. I was looking and my block is not like the rest of the teskid blocks, below is a picture of where the drain plug SHOULD be: I simply have a blank spot but I did find that on both sides under the motor mounts there is a plug but that is not going to work, I will never be able to get the sensor in there and it might get damaged. Does anyone know anywhere else I can locate my sender? Someone suggested putting it in the heater core hose, would this work & would it be accurate? EDIT: Apparently the heater core design is different than MARK VIII (cobra doesn't have a threaded insert) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01yellercobra Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 If there's a pad there what about drilling and tapping a hole? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Det_Riot Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 Not looking to do that, I want to find an existing location.The blocks in the car now right? That makes it rough, it'd be no big deal if it was out to buzz a little hole in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arayray Posted October 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 I ended up using a washer to properly ground my autometer sensor. Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arayray Posted October 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 just curious, can you post a pic of how you ended up doing it? Theres gotta be a better way :-/ Just ground a washer out to fit around the 3/8 npt adapter and solder a ground to the battery. I will get a picture later, it works so I am happy.
