SW heat gauge

He needs a 362-AH. They're brass and brass won't weld itself to an aluminum intake.

What is the difference between the 2? They look the same externally except one looks to have a steel body and the other is brass.

The difference in the numbers is brass vs. steel body. The boat versions are brass, but steel welds it self to aluminum through corrosion, so I wouldn't use the steel ones for that reason. If you have a cast iron intake it wouldn't matter though.

Thanks John, you really know your SW. P.J., if you need one let me know. If anyone else is looking for one there are plenty to go around.

John one more question. Is it necessary to put a plastic washer on the threaded part before I put the wire on the terminal??
Thanks

I will sell any of the senders for $15 shipped in the US. Not sure what it will cost to send to Canada though. P.J. I will save one for you until we can figure shipping.

I wouldn't think they should need a plastic washer. Mine just have a brass flat washer and a copper lock washer, but just about anything that won't work loose should be o.k.
