Mechanical Water Temp Guage in Block

[VH 1UZ-FE]

Does anyone know where I can put a mechanical water teperature probe in the block? Thanks

Why not in one of the cylinder heads or lower intake. Cylinder head temp is more cruicial to engine performance than engine block temp.

You can put in anywhere along the radiator hoses. My favorite place is the run a T of one of Throttle Body Coolant lines. This method is the easiest, but might not give you the true engine temperature.

Why not tap the plug on the front water bridge to suit your sender.

You can get adaptor from an Hydraulic specialist. I got mine from Pirtek.
