The petrol V6 used in the FJ, the Prado and Hilux are difficult to install bolt-on temp sensors on the inlet side of the head but there are bolts locations on both left and right heads high up on the exhaust side that work well. These are near the rear of the engine.
Alternately, other customers use the inner rear tappet cover bolts but it appears that the temp response is slightly slower but the installation is easier,
This awesome beach recovery vehicle is used to pull bogged vehicles out on beaches in South Australia. The owner installed 2 complete dual sensor EG01-2. One system monitors the engine with sensors on each head, and the other system monitors both transmission AND transfer case temps.
