Subject:      Taco plate temp sender
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes

In the distant past  I installed a VDO temperature in the sump
inspection ("taco") plate of a 2.0 engine. Then I got a 914 plate and
even had a spare. Now I'm redoing the whole process a decade later.

Last time, the sender came with a full sized drawing of exactly where
to drill the hole in the plate. This time, nada. It seems like this
little bit of info should be on the web by now as a PDF, but it
doesn't seem to be.

Does anyone have a copy of that drawing, maybe? Would you be willing
to scan it?

Please don't start a discussion about how the sump plate location
doesn't give accurate information, or a CHT reading is better, or you
don't use any gauges. There's plenty of that in the archives, on the
Samba, etc. What there isn't anywhere is a picture of where to drill
the hole.

Also, I forgot how I sealed this.
