Bummer.

For the record, I'd like to make it known that I hate email. I hate email servers, I hate postfix and dovecot, I hate everything to do with email.

Just so you're aware.

this isn't a forum issue but since most of the Admins are subscribed to this thread ill run this past you so i dont have to ring Christian and waste his time :D when he could be fixing the forum :D

i know we have special User tags for SAU sponsors but is it possible we could get ones for business's that support the state clubs too

Given they don't pay SAU... I am not in favour of this option.

Your club/business sponsors have nothing to do with the site unfortunately as we are not seeing a cent of any sponsorship.

I know WA has tags etc, for the record i do not agree with them and was not even aware until i just saw them one day... (NSW/VIC do not get tags)

People already think that the club is the same as the forums and I find myself explaining the differences a lot.

I am not anti the tags, I am not all for them either. We would need to create more member groups for each states sponsors (if you saw how unorganised our groups are, you'd know why I dont want to do this.)

As far as SAU is concerned - they are a standard user.

It's only your club that would see it otherwise in this instance and only further confuses things :)

I'm happy to create a sub-forum in your members only area?

i seem to be received all emails for this topic...however, ive subscribed as delayed email notification which supposedly means you only get one email until you login again? but i get an email for each reply (which is what immediate notification is, i think?)

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
