Is there an alternate location for the temperature sender on a slant 6 way down at the bottom of the block, rear of the oil pressure port? Seems like that should be an oil gallery down there, especially being in line with the oil pressure port, but I can't be sure without taking it out and seeing what runs out. This is on the old trolley, of course. There's a gauge on the dash but it reads nothing. The oil pressure port has a tee with both a switch (presumably for an idiot light) and a sender (for the oil pressure gauge, which actually works). But back behind it, just above the oil pan, is another threaded-in contraption with an electrical wire coming out of it. The wire is only about 3" long and I can't find anything nearby that it used to connect to. I don't recall whether the gauge on the dash ever worked or not, but I might guess that the gauge used to connect to this sender and the wire broke. I'm used to temperature senders being near the top front, and that's how it is on my D300, but in this case that port is plugged.
