Dans toy Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Hi , I'd appreciate a little help. I have an LQ4 in a 74 260z. I went down to Napa Auto to get the stock datsun water temp sending unit and all they sell you is a brass stud about 3/8 in dia. & 11/2" long with a single pin connecter at one end. It looks like it maybe presses in another part. Do I need to locate some other Datsun part & where is the best(sending unit) mounting location on an LQ4? (using stock gauges) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONGO510 Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Dan, It sounds like you got the correct part. you may have to purchase an adapter to install it in the LS engine. Mongo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dans toy Posted March 20, 2011 Author Share Posted March 20, 2011 MONGO510, I found a site that shows an adapter to be used with a BMW sending unit. Not sure if it will work with a stock sender & or thread into a III gen chevy eng. Thanks for the pointer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
