      Joe - certainly you have on that involves safety wire? I still hope to set up a set of allen head stainless header bolts drilled and safety wired.... lots of work to do the first time, but no way they're vibrating out after that.
      There's always something new to learn.

        when you do, call me I will wire them in about 5 minutes. If nothing else in this world I can safety wire. It is easy once you do it on damn near every nut bolt on a aircraft engine...I even have my own set or wire pliers. you should see the crap I can do with wire...really..it is amzing. I can do it by hand better than most can with pliers. sadly, it is not a marketable skill

          was looking for the ingenuity thread (It may not exist).

          nothing written, no directions, and a problem...
          just fix it right?

          really had to get this going. maximize cooling, and the heater did come around..strong as ever. The plug bolt is where sending unit used to be.I found a spare 16mmx1.5 bolt..lucky, I thought I used all of them.Expensive buggers. I then by freak chance found a nut that fit it. I set the depth exact to maximize hole opening while using all threads…then locked nut. This leaves a lot more opening for fluid then the sending unit clogging the whole opening. The pressure in this area is astounding. it still gained a drop pretending to leak..then won (photo). The new placement of the sending unit was right next door where a thermal vacuum switch used to be. It is not dipped in coolant anymore, the hole is sitting on an empty plateau. Lo and behold I got the same exact reading.

          I'll just park the crazy sending unit next to japan.

              stage 8 bolts, better than safety wire..
