Thanks for your answers, I'll just have to screw it in and feel with my hand that it doesn't come loose and that it rotates with just enough resistance.

Thanks Kurt for your quick response. I've already taken apart the parts and replaced the seal. So the marking thing doesn't work. But next time I won't be in such a hurry.

Hello all experts. Can anyone tell me what torque to tighten the nut to? I have replaced the seal on the pinion and the housing. If you are going to pre-loded how easy should it turn? The car is a 1953 Mercury Monteray 4 door with automatic transmission. Thanks in advance: Lars Merry Christmas...

Hello again Today, at last, the temperature sensor came and the best thing about it was that it was made in the United States. As I wrote in a previous post, it was expensive. But now everything works as it should. So again, thanks for the help of all involved. Then we finish the thread with the...

I saw your invite Jersey Devil and I thank for it. But now I have to work well summer is short here in northern Sweden :-). But just because I ordered a sensor, it is not said that I will not use your kindness. But for the moment, it has not come, but I have been notified that it is on its way...

An NOS can only be forgotten here in Sweden. I was just lucky to get a modern sensor. Obviously, it's probably Made in China but I'm chances there's no other way out. Should also check fuel pressure. Thank you for your information on the pressure After switching the sensor, I enter what happened...

Ok guys I have now ordered a new temperature sensor but only one with one connection. Right. I'll have to wait for it and will return when I change it and get the result. New problems now show up in the sky. Today, suddenly, the carburetor began to flow over when I started it as usual. There...

Hi again so the double sensor should not power out just after switching on the ignition? That's what's happening here on this engine. It then feeds the seed with a pin. By the way, I connected the ohm meter to the single sensor. I started reading when the engine was hot and the temperature gauge...

Thanks to both of you. It seems that you do not get too far to measure it either :-). Does anyone have experience of how the temperature gauge behaves if this temperature sensor is broken? Is it that when the engine gets warmer, does it fall and continues to fall until it shows cold? How did old...

Thanks tubman. it would be nice if you could get that data especially the resistance through the temp sensor when the engine is operating temperature. If that is the fault, is it then that the temperature gauge behaves? The temperature sensor on the left side with two connections is only a...

Hello Has a problem with the temperature of a Ford flathead 1953. When the ignition is switched on, the temperature gauge is hot (it should be or?). When the engine is running then it falls to cold. Could it be the temperature sensor on the right half that does not work? Is it possible to...
