Coolant temp gauge installation

[BigTime]

So I'm going to attempt to install a coolant temp gauge on my Nytro this week, but I have a question. Which hose are you guys splicing into for the adaptor? I've searched the topic and haven't been able to find the correct spot. I have a few ideas, but looking for a little helpful insight. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Thanks mcamzr! Looks like I'll be pulling the tank. Thanks again for the help, this shud get me in the right direction.

 

[mcamzr]

I actually put mine without pulling it. But I should have.

Thx mcamzr!

I don't know where you are going to mount it but for mine that bracket is a piece of aluminum from lowes I cut and bent up in a vice.

I'm using a pro sport gauge, so I have a pod that I'm gonna mount next to the display. Thanks again for all your help, I'm sure I'll be asking a few more questions once I get started.

Hey big time. Can you post pics of your setup? I am looking to install a temp gage as we'll and want to see the pod you are talking about

So I'm kinda stumped. Where exactly did u hook up for power? I've read in other posts to hook one wire to the red/white and one to the blue/white. Now there is a red/white comin out of the ignition, which then turns into a blue/white when it goes into a connector. There's also red/white and blue/white running together out of a plug by the oil tank. Which ones do I use? Sorry for the dumb questions.

I can't tell by my pic but I'll try to run out to the sled tonight and take a look

I just put a temp gauge on my nytro a couple of weeks ago, I pulled power from a blue/white wire coming out of fuse block below reverse lever.

The blue/white wire from the fuse block located by the chaincase is your most secure bet. DO NOT pull power from the relay harness by the oil tank!
