I'm looking at fitting an electric fan to my series 2A. However, the
2A doesn't have a temperature gauge against which to check the fan on/off temperatures. It looks as though there's a blanking bolt in the cylinder head where on later landies a temp gauge sender is fitted ( 560794 ), so I could fit a sender to the 2A head. (There's already a sender in the head for the choke warning light, but I seem to remember this is just a thermostatic switch, so probably no good.) Does anyone know the resistance vs temp curve for the 560794 sender? Alternatively, does anyone know of a temp gauge which would work with this sender in a +ve earth vehicle, either with a voltage regulator built in or using the +ve earth regulator already in the 2A instruments? My background is in telecomms, so if I can sort out the calibration of the sender I may designing an electronic temp gauge and fan controller! Anyone interested in details as to how I get on?- posted
