PS: I have thousands of plastic 3/8" double ended barbs about 1" long that I could possibly run a die over to make the M10 x 1.0 thread pitch with 1/4" hole through center ????? Would they work for the threaded barb thingy you mentioned in #75 above?

The Koso BG018B01, Water Temperature Sensor Adapter (18mm) would fit the radiator hoses and the M10-1.0 barbed adapters.

Please read post #70 of this thread, and onward. ![]() ![]() ![]() Do you know of an adapter which fits an M10-1.0 fuel sensor and 3/4" hoses which makes a 90-degree turn? If not, what else might work?

Heater hose is available in both 5/16" and 3/8" diameters. The M10-1.0 barbs are also available in both 5/16" and 3/8" diameters. Which side should we choose?

Spud,
Thanks for pulling apart your thermostat housing and posting the pictures and all the extra info. ![]() Regarding the lack of space on the bottom hose ( radiator to water pump). I have been looking at these self seal connectors but the flange might be too big for the size of our hose. Also they do an m10 sensor fitting, all a bit pricey though. http://www.revotec.com/acatalog/Self...d-Fitting.html |

I think i'm right in saying that there's not much size difference between the 2. So I guess either would be ok. Needless to say I will be doing mine in millimeters ![]() I guess the internal diameter needs to be a large enough to be effective but not so large as to divert to much flow from the radiators when the coolant is super hot. Perhaps a small inline tap could be fitted in to the bypass tube to control flow . ![]() |

![]() You only need one of the self-sealing connectors, since there is lots of room for the Koso adapter to be placed upstream of the thermostat housing. ![]() http://www.revotec.com/acatalog/Self...h-On-Tail.html Here is a video which shows how to install the fittings. ![]()

Kat,
I would be willing to purchase one of the spare, Thermo-Bob thermostats for you, and ship it to England. In fact, I would talk to the seller first, and ask him to allow me to test the thermostat for a correct fit. If the thermostat doesn't fit, I would return it to him for a refund. ![]() http://shop.watt-man.com/Thermo-Bob-...rmostat-S3.htm ![]() If you install the system, and everything works well for you, perhaps you could ship some of the Revotec fittings to me, in the United States. ![]()

I think these M10-1.0 hose barbs would work well with either 8mm, or 5/16" hose for the bypass.

I contacted Watt-Man about his Thermo-bob solution and he replied that he will likely join the discussion in our thread. I'm looking forward to his insight into our issues.

what about a 10mm banjo bolt and banjo barb fitting?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-Pcs-Brake-...ZXGRuq&vxp=mtr http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fitting-8mm-...pV66eU&vxp=mtr or skip the barb and use an m10 braided line http://www.ebay.com/itm/40cm-16-M10-...RViMhq&vxp=mtr

Using the following items, I think the cost would be about $90 for us in the United States.

I have thousands of these that I could probably run a 10mm x 1.0 die on one end. 1/4" hole through and .410 dia. barbs for 3/8" hose. Would need to order a die as I don't have one. rj
