Re: Oil temp???
 

No way...gas is cheaper! :D

Where is the temp sender located on a 2003 496ho? mine never move at all even after running hard they stay at 140deg mark never move? ive heard baja didnt install them in the right location?

where is the best place to install them?> can i put a T on the back of engine where the oil pres. sender is??

I put mine right on the remote filter, and I see 180-190 at normal cruise after a hard run mine reach 250-260 but go back down after pulling out of it.. Keep in mind that those temps are before the oil cooler there read as soon as the hot oil comes out of the motor and into the remote filter!!!

could u snap a pic where u mounted the sensor i cant see where to put one thanks man

The remote filter has 2 plugs in it.. Pull one them and screw in the sensor.. Next time I'm in the boat I'll snap a pic...

when i get a chance ill look again but i looked it over the other day during oil change didnt see any plugs

Should be right next to the oil lines that enter and exit the remote.. Mine is on the right side of the oil line.. Hope that makes since..

thanks man ill look

Ok I checked my boat there is a 1/2" plug on the stock mercury oil remote filter pad right next to the oil line that brings the hot oil into the filter.. I took that plug out and adapted my senders right there, like I said earlier it's reading the temps of the hot oil just after it leaves the engine and before the oil cooler..

I forgot to get the picture if you absolutely need one pm a cell # and I will snap one with my phone and text it to you...

Fleg

Thanks alot for taking the time to help me out
