When the engine is running, there is a very low oil level in the crankcase, does this probe actually touch the oil when it is the filler hole? Or is it just a general engine temp reading?

I like it though....

The sensor is shorter than the one in the picture above and is in noway touching the oil. Mine is made in Germany from http://www.louis.de/

Posts: 7844 SW Washington State Gender:	Re: New chrome indicator for savage Reply #8 - 07/05/04 at 05:45:26 Well considering that the oil IS the coolant in the engine, I suppose that is accurate enough for a general temp reading. Besides, it adds another "chrome accessory" and that is important too 8) What is the normal temp?
