ABSTRACT:
An adaptor-retainer for quickly and easily selectively securing either a temperature sensor or a sealing plug in an opening in an automotive vehicle radiator header, depending upon whether that vehicle is or is not to be provided with a temperature sensor. The adaptor-retainer includes a retainer bushing having an inner end adapted to be secured and sealed in the opening, and a threaded outer end. A sealing bushing is adapted to be engaged in the retainer bushing for sealing cooperation with either the sealing plug or the sensor, whichever is installed, and a threaded retainer cap is adapted to be engaged on the threads of the retainer bushing to secure and seal either the sealing plug or the sensor in the retainer bushing by clamping it between the retainer cap and the sealing bushing.
