Temp sending unit boot

[trudysduster]

Does anybody know a part # or where I can find the little rubber 90* boot that snaps on the temp sending unit on a 440 engine. I bought one from Summit Racing, part # 5656PT but the hole isn't big enough to go over the threaded end of the sensor. The sensor I have is a BWD # WT762. I have tried using a spade connector but when you tighten down the nut it screws up the sensor. Now I know why they have one of these snap on terminals. Here is a pic of the sensor and the boot. The hole in the boot needs to fit a .187 or a 3/16" stud.

This may work for you.
GM Ford Chrysler Universal Stud Socket Pigtail

It's a #8 screw size which is .164" so may be the same as what you have pictured.

I don't think that will work. The GM # it shows is the same # as the 5656PT which I bought from Summit Racing and is too little. thanks for the reply.

I cant believe someone doesn't have one of these laying around off of a 440.
