Posted April 11, 201311 yr comment_420202 Sorry about the pic rotating 90 degrees CC Hello, I attached a picture of 4 sensors just below the thermostat housing of a 75 280z. 1) please correct me if I'm wrong but the one I labeled with the gold tape is the thermotime. The one I labeled with the green tape is the water temp sensor? 2) What sensor is the white tape on? 3) What sensor us the yellow tape on?

April 11, 201311 yr comment_420232 The white tape is on the temperature sensor (guage).Gold tape is on the thermotime.Green tape is temp sensor for the EFI.Yellow ? I have heard its used as a thermo switch for an electric fan, but I can say for sure.The link in siteunseens post has a couple of good drawings showing the layout as well.Chas Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/46242-4-sensors-thermo-water-x-and-y-75-280z/#findComment-420232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
April 11, 201311 yr comment_420249 Yellow is the water temperature switch for activating the second magnetic pickup in the distributor, I believe.
