39508, Trans Temp manifold and steel tubing sizes??
Posted by BattleZEclipse98, Feb-19-03 06:02 PM
Hi,
I have 95% of the parts needed for my turbo install in boxes and on their way to my house. however, i'm stuck on what I should do about installing the temp sender for my tranny. I bought the autometer trans temp gauge and the B&M super cooler with 1/2" female npt fittings. I saw that autometer sells a trans temp gauge temp sender manifold. they sell two models, 2286 Fits 3/8" O.D. Tubing 2287
Fits 5/16" O.D. Tubing. what tubing size do we have? and what additional hardware will I need to complete this section of the project?
the install instructions they provide are at
http://www.autometer.com/hp/instruction_download/instructions/267a.pdf
any help is appreciated! if i'm going the wrong route let me know

On my B&M tranny cooler, I installed 1/2" NPT to 3/8" Barb fittings from Lowes plumbing section. I then went to autozone and bought 10 feet of 3/8" tranny cooler line and a bunch of clamps.
For my tranny gauge, I welded the temp sender fitting into the tranny oil pan and installed the sender there. That's the best place for it! I can take pics if you want.
