Re: [T3] Oil temp sender (was: Gauges)

["Joe Plowick III" <type3lvr@ij.net>]

This should be good.

My dilema was choosing between the two mounting points.  In the T-1
location, it's in the main oil galley right after the pump and before the
cooler.  The T-3 location is on the output side of the oil cooler.  So I
wanted to mount the oil pressure in the T-1 location to get the output
pressure from the pump.  Then mount the oil temp in the T-3 location after
the cooler so it reports the temp of oil going to the rest of the motor
(obviously after warm-up).

Please correct me if I'm wrong on this!

Joe
