So I ordered a Pro Sport temperature gauge and ordered there sensor adapter, well to make a long story short they only had a 28mm adapter and when I was installing it the sensor fit really tight and I was worried that after a while it may end up splitting the rubber line. So I went and ordered a Koso 26mm sensor adapter and it fits a lot better the only thing that concerns me is when I screw the sensor in to the adapter it sits a lot lower then it would with the pro sport adapter. When the sending probe is mounted in the old pro sport adapter the tip is just obstructing the hole a little, compared to when it is mounted in the koso adapter where it sits a lot lower obstructing the flow more. I drew a picture to show what I am talking about, my only concern was is the flow being obstructed to much where it's not letting enough fluid through causing me problems. I think it should be alright since the coolant is a liquid it shouldn't obstruct the flow to much but what do you guys think?

No worries, mine was similar and I didn't have any issues.
