This thing is really ticking me off. I am trying to install my new guages, mechnical by the way. And I cannot get the temp sensor out to save my life. I just can't figure it out. I unscrewd the flange, but I can't get the rest of it out. Any ideas on how to do it? I can't fit my channel locks in there with the lack of room. Should I just take the entire assembly off the head and do that way? Thanks

Once the retaining nut is off the sensor shoud just pull out. If it's not it's most likely oxidized enough to attach itself to the housing. Try to get it out, or if you need to MSA sells new housings.

Whats the MSA website? I can't seem to find it...

I will try again tomarrow, and I think if I can't get it out I may just break out the drill and drill it out, and retap to a larger size if I have to, maybe that way I wouldn't have to but an adapter for my new temp sensor...
