Hey Mate,

Pretty sure you just need to fit a Oil Filter Sandwich Plate and a sender. The plate goes where the Oil Filter is and then that allows you to put in the sender. Then thats where you get a reading from.

They are at the bottom of this link.

go to kb auto one....supercheap might have one. its called a oil sensor adapter. basically a brass extension with 1 hole to stick in the unit.

u then take out stock oil pressure unit. wack in this adapter. then wack in the stock pressure sensor and wack in your sensor.

feed off the oil at the oil pressure sensor location.

found its best......had a fair few leaking sandwich plates!!

sort of similar to this=

nah mate. theys are for electronic gauges as well. the sender has a thread on it right.

just screw it into the adapter i have posted....or as the bloke above me said get a double adapter. then once its in do your thing. hook up the earth and signal wire.

Hi all, dragging up an old one here (save starting a new thread). Where is the oil pressure sensor location? And is that an "accurate" location to get the oil temp?
