Re: Temperature connection at the head

Here is what mine looks like for reference.
Yes, the squared fitting bolts into the head, (it is directly into the water jacket space so is surrounded by the coolant), the sensor on the end of the tube (that is broken on yours) plugs into the bore on that fitting (so it is affected by the coolant and able to take its temperature), then the centre fitting that rides on the tube/spring tightens the sensor into the head fitting completing the water tight assembly.
