When I got the SwitchPitch transmission, Manny said I needed larger cooler lines. Before I knew it he was under there putting in larger lines. This meant that my transmission temperature sensor no longer fit.

I decided I had waited long enough to put the sensor in as I am going to tear over the Grapevine one of these days. I took the old sensor fitting and compared it to the new lines. Just ahead of the transmission Manny put Union blocks so the lines are more manageable. A trip to NAPA produced a new Tee that was exactly the same length. I had to wait an hour for it to be brought from another store so I took the old union block out. That took all of 5 minutes. About a teaspoon of fluid dribbled out.

New connector in hand, I tightened up the fittings and all was good. The new Tee didn't leak a drop. I gave a twist on a clamp at the auxiliary cooler and I am a happy man.
