    Default 912 oil temp sending unit location

    New to the list, bought a kitfox with a 912. Doing an inspection prior to calling an A&P to sign off the condition inspection.Now I am new to the 912 engine so I am trying to go over things as best as I can, tracing wires and hoses etc to get a beter understanding of where they go and what they do. Now I see the oil pressure and oil temp sending units on the firewall at the end oof what appears to be a hose from the lower right side of the gearbox. (see the photo the sending units are labeled and the purple line is where the hose is routed). Now I can see how the pressure sending unit would work there - but I dont see how the temperature sending unit could be accurate at the END of a hose without oil FLOWING through it. Any thoughts or is this location common on kitfoxes ?
