temperature sender
Can someone help please, what are the arrangements for a temperature sender on a 1098cc engine. does one have a light and or a gauge. We have just replaced the headgasket on my mates 68 moggie and he managed to wash off the labels he had written on the wiring. I replaced the temperature sender due a broken terminal and I had a choice of one with a gauge or a warning light. He hadn't a gauge so I ordered the alternative one, now a warning light comes on. I am away from home for 2 weeks and I have had 2 phone calls in 2 days from him. Can some one help or can I access a manual or wiring diagram on the net.

They didn't have a temperature gauge or warning light as standard so there is no provision for one in the wiring loom. The 1098 engines do have a removable plug in the cylinder head where you can fit a sensor.

If it doesn't work, you're not hitting it with a big enough hammer.
next time he rings, as sure as hell he will, I will ask him the colour. I didn't dismantle the wiring so I am unsure of what goes where, When I connected the lt to the dizzy it burnt the little wire inside, so I knew that was wrong and it was easy to find right wire. Then I was left with 2. One to the oil warning switch and one to the temperature sender. Bull Motif list 2 senders one for a warning light and one for a gauge. He tells me he has a warning light spare which I now assume is the filter blocked one, but neither his nor mine has any sender near the filter. I am just trying to have a quiet holiday but some how it won't happen if I cannot satisfy him
