But, you could always drill and tap some thicker material to screw the temp sensor in

Asked my tuner today about the location of the sensor he said that it gives a better true temp of the engine parameters, putting it in the manifold could have a higher temperature as the engine gets hotter than what would be had if the sensor was just under hood temps

GM used manifold temperature but it could give a higher temp then what is needed for engine management

Wrench of choice doesn’t grab the flats

**jaros44sr** · 02-05-2025, 11:49 AM

The old wrench on wrench trick worked out for leverage

Not the adjustable as that will just turn the flats

Who uses to different bushings sizes…..just a PO

**jaros44sr** · 02-08-2025, 04:08 PM

Being retired does have its advantages I can spend hours on end just fiddling around on the truck

I usually have 2 or 3 projects going at once so I don’t waste time waiting on parts or hardware I would like to find the correct handle for the valve

Jesse thanks for checking in

You have quite the collection of projects yourself good for you
