Operating temperatures for the ones I use are -58*F up to 350*F. I believe I can shoot you some more information on where to find a type of liquid immersion element if you're interested. You could put in a type of probe if you'd wish instead of trying to jerry rig an element like I do....since they are meant for open air applications. If you know what you're looking for, then it should be an easy task.Originally Posted by IndeedSS

definitely interested in more info on the thermistors. IF the temp sensor can be made cheap enough, then I wouldn't be against having one of those along with the pickup coil type, since I know those can be done cheaply if there a strong enough field generated.

You can slip the ss probe under the hose into the coolant stream. Been using them for years. Just under $20 a pop, you'll need 2

Thanks Ron. This is the quick cheap and easy method for the time being.

Ron how durable are these thermometers? Daily driver on all of the time, or track only?

Mine are in the car all the time. You have to replace the battery every 6 months because they are on all the time.

excellent. I'm going to try one of these. Figuring if I monitor anywhere in the system, it should give me a pretty good indication whether the pump is running or not. I understand running two, to monitor the both the cooled and the the heated liquid but I'm only really concerned to know if there is an unexplained temp spike (pump not running).
thanks again for posting the info!

Why do you need 2 by chance? For IN and OUT I assume? I'm thinking about giving one of these a try.
What kind of IC temps do you see? Does Engine bay heat affect it much if any?

I ordered 2 but am going with something else. Let me know if you want one... or two

Some parts came in today. Part review: the 28mm radiator hose adapter from the link I posted earlier is a very well made piece and fits the 1" clear hose ZZP supplies with their T fill kit. At first glance the gauge looks nice as well.
The $19 thermometers look decent enough especially for the price.
