i got tired of looking for a spot to put my efan's thermal probe (180deg) and came up with this,...



Dont mined the tape, it was there for some other wires.

 

Very nice, Where did you get the adapter? I was actually considering drilling and tapping my thermostat housing, However I think that is a much better approach. I don't like seeing my probe sticking out of my radiator fins at all.

 

its just a 1-1/2 pvc cuppling from my local hardware store. drilled a 3/16 hole (may vary) all the way through.

 

Pretty slick, Thanks sinus.

 

You know they do manufacture those and sell them (ebay) right? Nice work though. As long as it doesnt leak I dont see any issues with it

Ebay item number 380280406934 if anyone is interested.

 

lol never new they sold them, got mine for $5. just make sure you seal the ends with some kind of high temp glue or epoxy (JB Weld)

 

yeah Im sure making one like that was less than the approx $13 they have theirs listed for. Yours looks great and Im sure will work just as well.
