It is accurate within about 0.2-0.5C and not much trouble to fit.
The whole setup costs about $20-25 on ebay.

For comparison, the replacement of the broken flexible part of my rear ACE pipes was approx half the cost of any replacement I could find delivered to Melbourne.Quote:

Tighten them up, squeak and vibration has gone. And yes I did change the rear pads about 2 weeks ago!
Listening to kids can be a PITA sometimes, but their ears are way better.... Just wish they'd use them more often.Quote:

Came back to see coolant dripping out and found that stupid plastic return nipple that I had carefully glued on had broken away!
The worst design imaginable from a failure mode perspective. Will do it properly with a new radiator which I read is not a fun thing to do.

Just screw in a brass nipple, mine been like that for over two years, I have a radiator sitting there just incase, so far araldite is holding well even with radiator temps at 104 towing the van around.
