1) Identify the Cooler Feed line.  The transmission is labeled “To Cooler” and “From Cooler” next to each line. 

2) Slide the black plastic protective ring away from where the line enters the transmission and then remove the retaining clip (sometimes painted purple). 

3) Before removing the line from the transmission you should find something suitable to plug the hole to prevent fluid from coming out.  A piece of 5/8” OD hose with its end plugged is ideal.  You want to make sure that whatever you use is soft and will not scratch the inner surface of the hole. Remove the line at the transmission by pulling it outward and immediately plug the entry to the transmission.

4) With a ruler mark off 1.10” where you would like to install the sender manifold.  With a pipe cutter, cut this portion out. 

5) Install the manifold as pictured and reconnect the feed line to the transmission.   Proper tightening procedure for the fitting is one full turn + 1 wrench flat past finger tight (7 wrench flats total).  TIP: Don’t forget to reinstall the black plastic protective ring BEFORE you attach the short piece of the cooler line to the manifold.

6) Apply a small amount of RTV Silicone to the threads of the temp. sender.  You want to just coat the threads, not the tip of the sender.

7) Insert and tighten the sender with a 3/4" open end wrench.  DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
