mep-803a coolant temperature sender

[cbisson]

Well for coolant gauges you have a couple options (stock depending). This is a drop in replacement, but will read 15-20* higher than reality (though that has no effect on the coolant overtemp sensor which will still work properly if its too hot)

This is an inexpensive alternative for a coolant temperature gauge for tactical quiet series of generators (GENERATOR, 5KW, 10KW, 15KW, 30KW, 60KW TQG, TACTICAL QUIET FAMILY) which include the MEP-802A, MEP-803A, MEP-804A, MEP-804B, MEP-805A, MEP-806A, and many others. The gauge in this listing...

I have also personally used the DATCON 101587, but I don't see it available anywhere.

The one in the classifieds will work here. If you wanted it to be spot on, I am sure you could get the info from Beede on the resistance range and a suitable sender replacement... but it will work as is.

There's also this one that appearance wise matches what I bought a couple years ago under the part number (101586) listed above. Has a different part number now....not sure if something changed or if the vendors website is inaccurate.

FWIW: The gauges are basically the same, except the 101582 has Fahrenheit and Centigrade, while 101586 is just Fahrenheit.

All the best,
