🌡️ GlowShift 44mm Radiator Hose Attachment Adapter with Hose Clamps for Water Coolant Temperature Gauge Sensor Review

I need to find a place to put this on my truck. The upper radiator hose doesn't have much room to install, but it sucks to get it working.

I had to add a sensor to control the cooling fans. However, I had to drill a hole for the sensor and tap the threads to install the standard water sensor.

If you just want temp readings for a gauge this is perfect, the little temp gauge screws in nicely. However if you want to use it for a temperature switch you will need to drill a larger hole and tap the correct threads.

This is good quality and a good price. I recommend that the seller/Revain state in the product description that this is ONLY for installing an electric pressure gauge as it should have a 1/2 NPT outlet and not the 1/8 NPT that came with it. while it works fine.

Bought this and a 38mm case to replace two iron cases on a Grand Cherokee 5.9. I've tried threading in my 1/8th precision temp sensors and both only screw on 3 threads. It appears to have been cut for either straight threads or straight threads, whereas most gauges (my application anyway) have tapered threads. Get ready to mod with a tap and a dice for whoever wants to buy them. I'm not the first to mention this issue, Glowshift would be smart to address this otherwise great product.

Worked as it should. Easy to install good product. The only problem I had was that the sensor wasn't reading properly. As many know, this is usually a mass problem. Tried removing the teflon tape from the sensor and straightening it out more, tried grounding it but no luck. When I connected the sensor to ground it worked so I connected a permanent ground from the sensor to the battery and now it works fine and exactly as I tested with a heat gun. I've spent a lot of time getting it to work…

1) Poor quality control. The sensor hole was drilled at a slight angle so the sensor does not screw in completely flush with the surface. 2) Obviously only made for a two wire sensor. My transmitter only has one wire, so I had to drill about 3/8" into the top and cut a hole for an #8-32 mounting screw to place the ground wire on the unit. 3) The paint was on the inside of the sensor. a hole in the transducer to prevent metal-to-metal contact between the transducer and the block, which is…
