Bratton's Auto Parts have a temperture gauge w/sensor A 8256-T $50.00 setand a temperture probe pipe A 8256-P $12.50 : : : I want to go on an entended tour this summer with my stock early 30 Model A. I will encounter some long grades and hot days. I don't trust the Flying goose thermometer. : : : Is there a way I can put a temp gauge in even, if only temporary until after the trip? : : * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * : : : : Hi Fraser, that "goose" you're referring to is a quail (bet you were just pokin' fun at it!) . . . : : Seriously though - I'd suggest you get a motormeter instead.The reproductions seem to fit and work pretty good, and they're easier to see than the "thermo-quail."I used one on an 8000 mile trip from San Francisco to Virginia and back and it worked just great - showed us the boiling point just before the geyser went off!
: : Happy trip! : rick--about the quail radiator cap mascot---i think that was : usual for the ford---and the flying goose mascot was used on : the wills-st. claire cars, built by harold wills, who had been : mr ford's metallurgist before he left to form his own company. |
