By simply replacing your original dipstick with this Hot Oil Sensor, attach the 18" wire (included with the kit) to the oil pressure switch, you immediately begin to monitor your engine's oil temperature. The Oil pressure light at the bottom of your speedo now serves two functions. While continuing to monitor your oil pressure it now provides the data from the Hot Oil Sensor as well. If your engine oil reaches 225 degrees Fahrenheit the light will begin to flicker, indicating that you are approaching an unsafe operating temperature. Simply reduce your speed and the light will typically stop flickering, indicating your oil temperature has fallen to a safe operating temperature once again. If your oil temperature continues to rise to 235 degrees Fahrenheit the light will remain on solid. This is the temperature at which we recommend pulling over at the first safe opportunity in order to investigate the issue.
The Hot Oil Sensor. It was created by Harold Brown in the late 1960's and remains virtually unchanged since the first one was offered for sale, over 40 years ago. We view that as testament to its design, quality and benefit. 1,000's have been sold around the world.
