Tinker Tailor Soldier Canaline

[LL 1975]

Canal world post

Dear enlightened friends.

My Engineer has asked me to purchase:

 

A threaded insert set for a 1/8" water temperature switch on a 42hp Canaline (EP910512).....

 

..... in his words he's tried and failed to drill out the old sender (which was sheared off accidentally by me) so will need to drill a hole, put in a thread insert and replace the sender with a new one (already purchased). With a google i can see kits that look like they would do the job but to be honest I am worried I'll get the wrong one, could anyone help please?

Cheers

LL

Search on the web for a 1/8" BSP helicoil kit, you will find lots. However, you need to be sure that the sender is BSP (Imperial) and not NPT (American).

 

If you get a kit it should have the right size drill and the installation tool.
