electric fan temp. sensor

[scrapper]

Is there any place in this block to screw in a thermo switch for a Efan? I am about ready to cut the top radiator hose and install a short piece of pipe and tap it for a sensor. Any ideas???

Find the factory temp sensor and put a T in it. Then put one sensor in each end of the T.

Its on the heater hose, will that cause a problem?The fan sensor may read it wrong or do you think it will be okay?

Heater hose won't work unless you run the heater on all the time.

I'd use a controller that has a probe that sticks into the radiator fins. You can find them for about $30 or spend more than $100.

The radiator hose is fine for a sensor, but before you fab one up they are available for about $20. Depends on how much your time is worth.

got my hours cut at work to 40 hours from around 50... My time is cheap right now. I will do the radiator hose. Thanks for the responses.
