Transmission temerature question?

[Leroy Eckert]

You might try to test the sender for its ohm range. Unfortunately, I do not know
the ohm range for the 140-320 gauge. It may have somethng to do with the
grounding of the threads.(ie.. if pipe dope was used to install) You can try to
contact Joe Federsel at JFedersel.tflx.com and see it he can give you the range
for that gauge sender.The gauge part number should be 9153475 and the sender
number should be 52320S002(mfg sender code E) There is a trouble shooting guide
at http://www.teleflexmarine.com but I cannot find the thing at this moment. It may
have been moved from its prior location.

Rob and Leroy,

Thanks for the reply. So it seems like mine is running hotter than it
should be! Now I just need to figure out why? The water temperature
is fine, 190 with fan cycling as needed.Now I just need to figure out
why? I guess my next step would be to get the cooler cleaned real
well. Any other suggestions?

Rob,
The rally is going to be great! twelve coaches, weather is perfect,
fall foilage, plenty to do in the area, good resturants, FMCA has a
rally in the same campground, with all their stuff.
And all the Disney characters will be there! Brisket Boy, Tent Boy
etc..
Next year plan to be in the North East Columbus day weekend!
