81035, Oil temp guage hookup ... Good readings using T ? Posted by brokenrodguy, Sep-27-04 07:19 AM I just got a oil temp guage that says I should tap into my oil pan. Can I just run a T off the stock switch hole or will my readings suck ? The way I think about it, Oil will flow better in the pan so I get better results. Im also hooking up a pressure sensor so will I be able to just run another T ? | |

Just tee it off? Because oil pan, its only taking the average but not the actual temp within the block. What's you take on that? | |
