XFlow Water Temp Sender Thread
Alfa145 - 8/1/11 at 09:17 AM

Hi,

Can someone confirm if the thread in the head of a 1.6 Xflow for the temp sender is 1/8 NPT?

And if so does anyone know a cheaper place than here to get a new sender for my smiths guage?

I got my last one from the local Ford dealer, can't remember how much it was as it was probably about 5 years ago!

The ones on ebay aren't much cheaper:

If it's a Ford Europe, it's 1/8 bspt. One tpi difference, as I recall.

The thread in the water outlet for a sensor, is 1/2" bsps. At least, that's what the one I got off ebay was.

Cheers,
