Water Temp Sensor for Electric Fan

[Paul Bennett]

In my new engine I wish to retain the original temperature sensors for the dash gauge. And the passenger side head will have a heater hose emanating from it. So far so good.

I'm wondering where to add the electric fan temp sensor.?. I don't want to use a goofy Y pipe as the sensors will not be in the heads to read properly.

So I am requesting what is normally done to accomodate the added sensor?

The ones I have used go in the port after removing the drain pitcock.They have an adjustable thermostat for when you wanted it to come on. Parr Automotive is where I got mine.Not sure if that is what you want.

deuce lover gives a good suggestion. You could also have a radiator shop solder an additional fitting in the tank to accommodate the sensor.

I put my sensor just below the top tank in the radiator. Just pushed it between the tubes. works fine.

There are sensors that located on the radiator tubes.
