Hi everyone. I have recently been working on installing the Intellitronix gauge cluster into my 1978 F150 with the 4.6L 300 V6 engine. It is nearly complete but I can't for the life of me find where I need to install the temperature sender. If you could help me figure out what I need to do that would be great. If you have pics, that would be a big help. Thank you.
Thank you both for the replies. Meangreen, I had looked there before but did not find anything that would be a sender. The only thing I found that might be a place to put one was a small port beneath the housing behind the belts. It’s kind of a bad pic but you can see it in the bright light right below the housing.
John, I will definitely look there tomorrow. That will be fun trying to reach in there with the tools.
John89 - looks like you may have painted yours along with the block... didn't realize I had done mine and had a heck of a time trying to clean the threads where the connector pushes on when I discovered I had no reading on my temp gauge. Despite cleaning it still reads a little low! Hopefully you can profit from my mistake.
