Oil Temp Probe
I am using a Canton oil pan on my FE, the one most everyone uses on the typical FE engine build. On the wing of the pan, at the top drivers side is a threaded bung to put in the oil temp sensor.
I am using an Autometer Cobra Series mechanical gauge.
With the NPT adapter and the collet adapter, the probe is supposed to be suspended into the oil. But I am finding with the engine running, there is enough oil in the upper galleys that it doesn't touch the oil until the engine stops and the oil drains back to the pan.
Has anyone else run into this? Any suggestions on how to get the probe lower into the pan?
