Temperature Adapters
A temperature adapter lets you fit a gauge sensor into a port it would not thread into directly. It connects the sensor to the fitting on your engine or cooling system so the sensing tip sits in the fluid and gives a steady reading. People fit one when adding an aftermarket coolant or oil temperature gauge, moving a sensor to a better spot, or pairing a gauge with an engine it was not originally matched to.
We currently have 1 temperature adapter in stock, from AutoMeter: the AutoMeter 3/8in Brass NPT Mechanical Temp Adapter. As the name says, it is meant for mechanical temperature gauges, which read through a sensing bulb rather than an electrical sender.
Confirm the thread size and type of the port you plan to use.
Match the adapter to your gauge type, mechanical or electrical.
Check that your sensor bulb or sender fits and seals properly in the adapter.
Use a thread sealant suited to the fluid and the fitting.
