Smiths oil/water dial

[Timbers]

Hi,

I just bought a second hand smiths dual oil pressure and water temp dial off ebay. The water temp is mechanical so I need to screw the brass temp lobe thing into the engine. It may seem like an obvious question but do I screw it in where the electrically temp is located, just below the thermostat housing?? Or somewhere else?

If it is the correct thread, it should screw in inplace of the electical temperature sender. 3/8" BSP?

Though looking at your sender, it looks a bit too long and the thread too fine to fit the Triumph thermostat housing. Alternatively, you could try it or fit a adaptor in the hose to take that thread.

Thanks Blacktower, I hadnt thought of connecting it via a water hose. I'll check the thread size.

Cheers
