07 MUSTANG GT water sender location exact
First of all I have searched all over the place and all I can find is it is the last freeze plug on the drivers side, does anyone have a detailed description of where that is or a picture, I really would rather not have to drill and tap the passengers side. thank you
Look below the last freeze plug on the driver's side. There is a plug with an allen (hex) insert. This can be replaced with autometer part #2268, which is threaded 16mm x 1.5 and will take a 1/8 npt fitting (I got mine from Summit Racing). Don't forget to use the copper crush ring that comes with the adapter.
Oh, and a ton of coolant will come out and no matter how you try to avoid it, you will get a shower. Or so I've heard...
Yes that low in the system you WILL get a shower. Try to drain the radiator first so you can minimize this.
Also there is a MUCH easier alternative. In this alternative place the readings won't be as accurate but you can still tell exactly what's happening with the cooling system.
I removed the plug that is in the coolant crossover passage between the heads at the front of the motor.
Drilled and tapped for 1/8" NPT and installed the sender there.
I also filed flat two sides of the plug so I could get a wrench on it.
I realize this may not be as accurate as possible but I tested it by connecting an LED to my electric fan. The fan comes on and goes off within 2 - 3 degrees of what I set it for using my DS Predator.
