Application
This mechanical water temperature gauge fits vehicles as mentioned in the product categories. The sensor bulb is screwed into the existing opening on the side of the cylinder head. Note: on some vehicles an adapter bushing may be required depending on the thread in the cylinder head.
Installation notes
The sensor bulb screws directly into the cylinder head (typically on the passenger side, rear). The capillary tube is routed from the engine through the firewall to the dashboard. The gauge is inserted from behind into the dashboard and secured with the supplied bracket. Use the correct spanner size to prevent damage to the fitting.
Compatibility
This is a mechanical gauge with integrated sensor — NOT to be confused with electrical gauges using a separate temperature sender (such as 914847). On some vehicles with non-standard thread in the cylinder head, an adapter bushing may be required. Verify that the original temperature sensor opening is suitable for the supplied bulb.
Historical context
Originally, this type of mechanical capillary gauges were used on early military jeeps and civilian variants. Manufacturers such as Stewart Warner and King Seeley supplied these gauges for original production and replacement.
