Hey Taz ... sorry for late reply ....
Im just using this ....

So Im not really getting
exact oil temps ... but close enough for my needs.
The unit also has a high temp buzzer and 12v power trigger for things such as thermofan relays etc ... It was just a quick, lazy way of getting a multifunction unit that did a number of jobs for me ... rather than dash full of permanent gauges and a gazillion extra miles of wiring / plumbing.
For an actual oil temp sensor ... Some have welded in sensor mounts in the sump pan ... It seems to be the recommended temp measuring spot. I was going to fit inline sensors on both oil cooler lines (another gunna
) but the electronic one is adequate - for me ... and easily hooked up to other components as required.
