Does this sending unit install in the pan or the tranny line?

My Ford van has a test plug just above the tranny pan. I removed the plug and installed the sending unit there.

Leon, I have to apologize, I'm not sure what you mean. I installed it on an 85 and it was a direct replacement except for running the thicker wire to the firewall.

Positive lead on dwell,to positive terminal on coil. PS it is opposite wire to the distributor. Negative wire just goes to engine ground.

I put it in my 2007 roadkingI put it in my 2007 road king when I changed the transmission fluid. Straight up no mixing.

It comes ready to hard wire. I put a plug instead, purchased seperately. There is no line switch in this package.

I purchased this item but never have made use of it. Although I have never installed it, I don't think it makes a difference which direction you feed the wires through. If I recall, I believe there are a couple of set screws that will splice into each wire to make the contact. Hope this helps. Steve

One wire goes to the ground on the vehicles frame to one of the five perimeter bolts. The other wire comes from one side of the gas gauge to the center nut/bolt of the sender unit. No third wire was used on my installation.

It has to be installed by an electrician and we also needed a plumber to connect it to our gas line. You also need to purchase the transfer switch

Yes, the heat will only transfer to the pan that is placed on the unit. There has to be direct contact for the heat to transefer.

Yes, it plugs in where the other one did. Are you talking about a dash mounted unit or a factory installed unit in your car?

No, if you are looking for a unit with a automatic transfer switch preinstalled you would need to order part number 7345A or 7355A.

You can install it wherever. Better to be in the oil pan if possible to see just what your engine or transmission is sucking in. You could also cut the hose and use some brass fittings to mount the sensor inline. Just make sure it's all secured well of course.

No, this is a direct wire unit that has a switch included hence the "S" after the 509. It is relatively easy to install.

it works through natural convection so proper installation is imperative. they must be mounted low on the engine, around the top of the oil pan works good, the inlet to the unit is connect to the block drain on the engine, the outlet of the unit is tee'd into a heater hose or connected to an unused sensor port on the engine before the thermostat. there is usually an extra one somewhere around the coolant temperature sensor

If you are going to flush ALL the fluid out of the transmission maybe not. If its just drain whats in the pan and the filter, yes its enough

I'm not standing in front of it right now, but as I picture it installed on the wall, the installers (from the propane company) ran a copper gas line up through my floor and right smack into the center of the unit. I didn't watch them do it though, so that is unfortunately all I can tell you. PS: Why are you Unhappy Dave? :o)
