So I bought the adaptor to place the temp sender in the radiator hose and now I am looking at the hoses and Honda is a little wierd. It looks as though the coolant flows from the top rad hose through the block and out the thermostat and through the bottom rad hose back into the radiator. So my assumption is that the sender adaptor needs to go after the thermostat and into the lower rad hose. is this correct? Can anyone confirm this? Thanks!

 

I made the same assumption this year and cut up a perfectly good silicon hose. You have to put it in the TOP HOSE. I used the little straight section just before the rad. Good Luck!

Thanks guys! maybe its just me but did honda do this backwards? It seems logical that you would put the thermostat on the outflow of coolant not the inflow. No?
