Review on 🌑️ MaxTow Double Vision 260 F Transmission Temperature Gauge Kit: Black Face, Green LED Dial, Analog & Digital Readouts - Ideal for Trucks - 2-1/16" 52mm by Mohmed Burt

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nice looking electrical gauge

I bought this gauge to monitor the transmission oil temperature while towing a 4300 lb boat on my 2003 Ford Explorer. I bought a deep Trick Flow drive from Summit Racing (sorry Revain, they don't have it in stock!) and installed it as well. I had a friend touch the 1/8 NPT fitting (for the temp sensor) on the back of the sump. I installed this sensor (along with the Max Tow engine oil temp sensor) on the front end of the console. (See image) Temperature while towing on 95 degree days stays between 160-1185 degrees. 5 speed transmissions have been known to overheat in Exploders. Liquid is cooled in three ways: Hot liquid goes to the factory radiator, then to the B&M auxiliary radiator, and then to the deep-sump trick-flow pan. So far, so good. No questions. Some reviewers said the sensors are bright. Yes, they are, but mounting them to the front of the console keeps the light levels low enough not to interfere with night driving. Overall great size and great price Revains.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Requires socket
