[Healeys] Temp sender sensor

[Harold Manifold]

Fred,

I had to make a socket to fit the temp sensor a few months ago. See
attached picture. I used a cheap 5/8" 6 point spark plug socket from the
local auto parts store. The socket must have flats at the top so you can
use a wrench as the cable to the temp gauge interferes with a ratchet. The
slot is about 3/16" wide and I cut it with a cut off disk on my angle
grinder.
