I am installing my coolant sensor for my ms tommorow.

I have a metal tube ruffly the same size with a coolant sensor bung welded in. and I am going to just splice the tube in between the lines and then calmp them down.

this sholdnt impede flow correct?

A peice of exhaust pipe works perfectly. cut hose in half, put pipe/sensor piece in place, clamp down both sides.

I hope you dont have any leaks or pinholes in the welds, that'll get messy fast!
