Review on Upgr8 Aluminum Water Temperature Sensor Adapter (28MM Replacement Parts ... Sensors by Kyle Cross

Revainrating 4 out of 5

This worked great for me if your car doesn't have a temperature sensor.

I did great. However, I have found that all of these adapters appear to be made by the same factory as they all look the same except for the brand painted or engraved on the product. The only thing I didn't like was that the sensor dangled a bit when screwing it into the adapter, requiring teflon tape. I think they may have done it that way because you need to use duct tape to create a proper water seal. That's just my observation. Also, do not overtighten the sensor or you could damage the threaded sensor in the adapter. So far so good for me! Before purchasing this adapter, correctly measure the inside diameter of the upper radiator hose and get really good steel ring clamps, those sold with the product may work for you, in my case they were under tightened and slipped.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine
