2.4 temp guage location?

[R.I.P.]

Im trying to find out where to put the temp sender on my 2.4 200.
its a 1989 black max and has two temp senders in the heads one on each side.
these are alarm senders and i have a temp sender for a teleflex guage.
which one or where do i put it?? or anyone know which side is 180 deg. and 200 deg.

[R.I.P.]

I think the different range temp senders were for two different motors....(the length of the wire tells which sender it is)

I have a guage on each side of my motor.....no temp buzzer sender....They go in the little pockets between the 1st spark plug, and the 2nd plug.

[R.I.P.]

it wouldnt fit on the alarm sender hole. should it go inbetween the top of the heads?

Does tha one on tha left (port) side happen ta have a black ground wire on it?.........

I pulled the thermostat out of the starboard head to measure how far it extended into the head, then drilled and tapped a 1/8" NPT straight down in the top of the head so that I've got enough clearance for the T-stat to open and not hit the tip of the sender unit. So far, it works OK. I can post a picture tonight.

And that measures WATER temp, and not HEAD temp.....(it should show a lower number)

[R.I.P.]

yes it does. what is this??

[tlwjkw]

If "yes it does" is tha answer to my question it means that that sensor is a temp guage sensor. Not an alarm sensor.............

the buzzer sender is a kinda flat looking insert.....the temp sender is more of a probe....
