The level sensor is designed to turn on the led or alert the controller in some kits as soon as the level inside the reservoir reaches the level of the sensor.
  • Page 3 Step 2 Tank Install OPTIONAL: If desired you can use the stock windshield washer fluid tank as the tank for your water- meth system. Simply drill and tap a 3/8” NPT hole in desired feed spot for system and install the 3/8” NPT fitting into the tank using E-6000 sealant on threads/around area.
