Where is the inlet hose for the Heater core? I'm trying to install a mech.Water temp gauge and don't know which one to tap! Any help would be appreciated.

On the passenger side you will see two hoses in plain view that ate looped towards the back.If you follow them they come from the back of the motor,loop around and go into the firewall.The one "towards the drivers side" (right) is the one to tap The only other ones that might confuse you are the two A/C lines.These are the ones in the far left on the firewall.Thoise you can trace to the A/C under the battery. These heater core hoses are about 5/8 outside diameter hoses.They go into metal tubing that goes to the back of the motor.Tap the hose on the right,This is the inlet.Either will work but this one will be the hottest before the heater core cools it a little to give you: heat.If you need anymore help,you should not even attempt this

 

I figured those were it! I installed a similar gauge on my 98 Cobra and it went on the PVC inlet, there was no need to ground the sensor....oh well, I'll take your word for it. I appreciate all the help!
