I was looking over my 2210 to add a temp gauge and the only place I see a pickup point is where the temp light indication switch is. I would like to keep the light and I prefer not to add a tee in the radiator hose. Am I missing a place where I can add a temp probe? Thanks

I haven't done it, but I believe they normally install a "T" where the existing temp sensor is and run both from that.

A tee does not usually work too well on a temp gauge. The sensors for both will need to be down in the water and it's not going to be easy to do that with a tee.

"T" would not work on mine. Neither sensor would see the true temperature. Has to be down in the water.

yup - it's one or the other....I went with the guage.
Do a search and you 'll find the right part you'll need.
However - for the oil pressure - you can oput a tee in-line nad end up with both the dummy light AND a guage....
have fun

I will add a tee in the radiator hose one day. I guess I just wanted my cake and eat it too.
