Concours Talk / Re: NOS C6DZ-10884-B Temp Sender
September 27, 2024, 05:38:36 PM
Thanks Brian!

Gets a little more confusing with the info in the 60-68 MPC and Bob Mannel's SBF book, both show the white insulator -A sensor was used on V8's:

1960-68 MPC: (only showing Mustang applications to keep it simple)
------------------------------------------------------------------
C6DZ-10884-A, stamped 250, 3/8"-18 pipe thread, includes white insulator:
- 1966 - 6-cylinder
- 1967-68 - all except 428CJ

C6DZ-10884-B, stamped 260, 3/8"-18 pipe thread, includes red insulator:
- 1966 - 8-cylinder (289, 390, 428)
- 1968 - 428CJ


Bob Mannel's SBF Book: (only lists SBF applications, I'm only showing Mustangs)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C6DZ-10884-A, stamped 250, 3/8"-18 pipe thread, 1-5/8" long, white insulator:
- 1967-69 Mustang (SBF)

C6DZ-10884-B, stamped 260, 3/8"-18 pipe thread, 1-5/8" long, red insulator:
- 1966 Mustang (SBF)

Quote from: 6s1640 on September 25, 2024, 03:50:19 PMHi guys,

Please educate us.  What does the white and red colored sender mean?  Is it the temperature range of the sender, or does it pair with certain year cars and temperature gauges.

I ask because I had a old sender that was reading low on the temperature gauge.  I swapped out for an aftermarket sender and the gauge read really high.  With the old and new sender, I checked the temperatures with an infrared thermometer on different engine parts and the values were in acceptably ranges and matched.  I then try a different gauge I got the same result.  I then swapped the sender again and got a more normal reading on the temperature gauge.  What am I missing?

Thanks
Cory

Hi Cory,

The C6DZ-10884-B sender was mostly used in V8's starting in 1966, it (typically) has a red insulator and 260* temp rating. The C6DZ-10884-A sender was mostly used in 6-cyl but IIRC also some V8's in 1967 and later, it has a white insulator and 250* temp rating. Temp ratings are stamped on one sender nut face. Not near an MPC at the moment but that will have all the details. Bob Mannel's book also has a nice SFB breakdown.

Quote from: Bob Gaines on September 25, 2024, 01:25:40 PMSimple enough to put some red Dykem dye on the insulator so as to make it look as expected.

Thanks Bob, I'll give that a try...

Quote from: 68blk500c on September 24, 2024, 02:51:25 PMThat is very early box.  I'm guessing that under that adhesive C6 label is an earlier part number.  Ford service parts keep us on our toes.

Was wondering the same, pulled the label back, no sign of anything under it.

Concours Talk / NOS C6DZ-10884-B Temp Sender
September 24, 2024, 01:33:26 PM
Came across this recently which has me a little confused. I thought the -B senders all have a red insulator while the white insulator was only seen on the -A sender? I have NOS Autolite and Motorcraft -B senders which both have red insulators. At first I thought this was just mis-boxed but it does have the proper 260 temp rating for a -B.

Is it possible the very early -B sender insulators were also white or could the red have completely faded away? Any suggestions for coloring, paint vs dye?

Thanks,
Dave

Also, Marti can custom make whatever you want, such as steel core wires with a radio resistance cover, and vice versa. It may cost 2x-3x more, thought they used to offer some combinations direct from the website. They made me a custom steel core/radio resistance cover set in 351W lengths to match the cam firing order. Only took about a week.

Well, since they do say...."Want to test drive this Mustang? Swing by our dealership or give us a call at (276) 284-9258 to schedule a test drive.", anyone local want to take them up on the offer and report back?

Quote from: Coralsnake on September 03, 2024, 07:20:14 PMCatalog F okay! Im finding the copyright inside the front cover or first page. Im thinking F is 1987?

I think the valve stem is on rim at five o clock? Would you agree?

Correct, 5:00!  Copyright is on 1st page but oddly no date.  I'm guessing 1988. Believe this is my first Branda catalog I got shortly after buying my 66 in 1987, it was delivered to the house we moved into in 1988.

FWIW, I have a 'Catalog F' which does not have a published date anywhere. Has the same exact photo as Jim's image in reply# 4 above although on page 23 instead of 21.

Yes, they are, all true 66's with a non-canister style fuel pump.
