Did it take much training to get your children to all pull at the same time?

Changed plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter, oil pressure sending unit and started to change oil and oil filter adapter o rings but it started raining.
Did find the source of my misfire. Now it runs smooth like butter.

Going to install a single gauge pod with a trans temp gauge. Would anyone know if the aw4 has a fitting or test port on it to hook the gauge up to? I'm looking around and see a couple spots but don't want to remove something I shouldn't be.
Edit: I'm trying to decide if a t fitting at the cooler outlet line is a good spot or if there is an adapter to plug it into the drain fitting in bottom of trans pan.

The AW4 does have ports but the port would be associated with a specific gear and you would only get a fluid temperature reading when in that gear.
The out line is the best place for the sender, it will give the actual working temp. A pan sender will only give the general temp.
I used a brass 'T' with 3/8" compression fitting and hose barb and installed sender at metal line and rubber line connection.
Good Luck
Here is a link with a picture of my pillar pod.

Changed the oil , rotated the tires , took it to the shop I used to work at and had an alignment done. While I was there I had talked to my buddy who said he will charge me $100 on the side to install a header. So I ordered an APN header , Magnaflow muffler # 10416 , 2.5" magnaflow free flow cat, and a 2.5" Mandrel bent tail pipe. She's going to doing so sweet within the next few weeks.

Thanks for the info.. Doing the T in the cooler lines makes the most sense I guess then only problem is I've gone to 5 local auto stores and not a single trans temp gauge! I'm actually looking at this Android app Torque that uses w Bluetooth obd2 adapter and feeds some great info right to your phone but not sure if trans temp is included in that.
That's a real nice xj you got there I like the carbon pod that looks pretty damn sweet man.
