Measuring with Genos Acutemp adaptor.

I put in a tranny gauge last spring when I bought a new heavier trailer (12,700lb) the tranny temp is fine on the highway but in the stop and go it heats up to the 200 plus. Being aware of this I need to keep and eye on the temps in certain road conditions I assume that is why I have the gauges lol.

Tried to R&R the thermostat couldnt get the darn thing out of the tranny cooler. Put some heat on it but the thermostat would not pop out. Did not want to try to force it out and screw something up.
