This Davies Craig in-line adaptor is for automotive enthusiasts and mechanics needing to accurately monitor transmission oil temperature, especially in custom builds or tight spaces. Its key benefit is providing a convenient, secure port for a temperature sensor directly in the hot side of the transmission oil cooler line, offering crucial data for performance tuning and longevity. A caveat is that the temperature sensor itself is not included and must be purchased separately.

The adaptor has a 1/4" NPT female thread port, which is a standard size for many automotive temperature sensors.
No, the temperature sensor is not included. You will need to purchase a compatible 1/4" NPT sensor separately.
It is designed to fit oil cooler pipes with a 3/8" (10mm) internal bore.
It is specifically designed for the hot side of the transmission oil cooler line to provide accurate temperature readings. Ensure your hose size matches the 3/8" (10mm) bore requirement.
Use a high-quality thread sealant designed for automotive applications, resistant to heat and transmission fluid.
While installation is straightforward for those with basic mechanical experience, professional installation is recommended if you are unsure about any step, especially regarding hose clamping and sealing to prevent leaks.
Ensure hose clamps are tightened securely. Check for any nicks or damage on the oil cooler pipe where it meets the adaptor. Reapply thread sealant to the sensor port if the leak is from the sensor threads. Verify the correct hose size compatibility.
Verify the sensor is correctly threaded into the adaptor. Check sensor wiring to your gauge/logger for proper connections and continuity. Ensure the sensor itself is functional and compatible with the gauge.
Confirm the oil cooler pipe's internal bore is exactly 3/8" (10mm). Slightly warming the hose end with a heat gun (use caution) can sometimes make it more pliable. Ensure no obstructions are within the adaptor's hose barb area.
Compatibility: This adaptor is designed for oil cooler pipes with a 3/8" (10mm) internal bore. Ensure your transmission oil cooler line matches this dimension before purchase. The sensor port accepts standard 1/4" NPT female threaded temperature sensors.
Setup:
Care: No specific maintenance is required for the adaptor itself. Regularly check the hose connections for security and the sensor for proper function. Ensure the temperature sensor is kept clean and functional.
