If the temp gauge is electric it will need aground wire if installing in a hose. The top radiator hose will be ok but temp gauge will read a little hotter than temp actually is.

Thanks for the reply I actually went ahead & cut the bottom hose is it ok to use the bottom hose
For the ground does the wire have to go directly to the pipe or attach to the sender
