Yes, I have had one on the car for 3 years and 7000hard miles with a racetech temp gauge. No probs and a very good mod as my standard guage is rubbish

Nice one ,can i ask if you know what size i need to buy mate and the best position to fit it,its a mk2 escort running a pinto btw

I use one in th top hose for the electric fan controller and the normal sender in the block for the gauge. I did fit a new sender when I built up the engine and it hasn't caused any problems so far. But the best is a capillary temp gauge.

[petrolhead]

lol. I've got a crossflow, I don't know what size you would need for a Pinto. Best place, as said, is the top hose. Just whip it off and measure the id.
