    Coolant and Oil Temp Sensor

    Now that we have the oil pressure sensor issue corrected. How hard is it to swap to the humvee crossover? Does it match up exactly? Does the heater core hose still come off the crossover? Can you remove the existing 6.2 crossover without removing the injection pump?

    Coolant and Oil Temp Sensor

    I don't have a strong argument as to why. It all started when I decided to add a coolant temp gauge. And I thought, hey, while I'm adding gauges maybe I should add an oil temp as well. It sounds like I need to switch gears to an oil pressure though, huh.......

    Coolant and Oil Temp Sensor

    I agree that the oil pan is the ideal location. However, I am not a welder. What does your oil temp run in that location?

    Coolant and Oil Temp Sensor

    Thanks for the advice. With everything going on right now, I have a 8mo old at home and was trying to minimize getting out by ordering online

    Coolant and Oil Temp Sensor

    Thank you for the clarification. I understand now. I pulled the plug by the oil filter housing. I need to get a reducer for the temperature gauge. Does 1/4" describe the square head or is it the thread also? Once I pulled it, I can't get the plug to screw into my thread identifier. I guess what...

    Coolant and Oil Temp Sensor

    This may be a dumb question, but the temp gauge sensor you reference that would be across from the glow plug control sensor on the passenger side: if I put a temp sensor there, would it be coolant sensor or oil temperature? Also, what is the sensor with the single orange wire in the pic?

    Coolant and Oil Temp Sensor

    I’m still trying to decide where I’m going to place the sensors but I’ve been looking through the parts manual and I’m trying to figure out what sensor is drivers side rear behind the sensor with two wires? Is the sensor in the pic that has one orange wire the sensor that controls the wait light?

    Radiator Questions

    Actually, I bought the only one that was available on the Autozone website. It was listed as a Duralast B850. Shipping information came from Spectre. Once it arrived it had both Duralast B850 and Spectre CU850 listed on the box. I opened the box, saw the dent, snapped the photo and closed it...

    Coolant and Oil Temp Sensor

    thanks! I’ll have to find that tool somewhere. Another question about coolant, does the heater core get constant flow from the radiator? Meaning, could I add a tee connection where the heater core hose takes off from the coolant crossover pipe to allow a connection for the coolant temp sensor...

    Coolant and Oil Temp Sensor

    I know this is covered before. I guess I’m looking for current opinions. Where’s the best locations to add a coolant and oil temp sensor while keeping the dummy lights intact? For coolant: Crossover Manifold? Water pump? Is there somewhere that will give me an exact coolant temp pre-radiator...

    Radiator Questions

    Oh wow. Yes I do. That’s crazy. I’ve had this truck for 4 years and never really looked at the difference. I guess bc I haven’t had to. I wonder if the truck will run better once I exchange it? Autozone only has a Duralast B850 on the website. Do you think that’ll work? The description on the...

    Radiator Questions

    Ok. So my truck isn’t overheating yet and it still holds pressure. I need two opinions. One: would you just go ahead and replace this radiator in the pic? And two: does everyone use water coolant rtv when installing the water outlet gasket or just hat the gasket by itself?
