Alright yeah duah i was doubting myself there, however were is the actual sensor. Is it on the block as the coolent leaves the interanals of the block or is the sensor as the coolent goes into the radiator.

The Reason why im am curious is while ive been waiting for my fuel preasure unit ive had the water temp up on my quadzilla and i was hauling about thousand pounds of wet wood yesterday up through some steep grades and i realized that my stock temp and the cammander were reading different by a good chunk.

The Stock gauge would read a hair under 190 99% of the time while the cammander would fluctuate greatly between about 200 and 220. So im woundering what is up.

I dont want to make a big stink about this because the cammander is a good unit from what ive seen and its probably just an operator error or somethin. So any ideas
