It was a good cruise yesterday, thanks to Theo and Craig and everyone else involved for making it happen; it was a great turnout.

I also enjoyed meeting a good bunch of people at lunch, I didn't know anyone on the table when we started but everyone was great.

I had an excellent drive home via Wiseman's Ferry, Windsor and Penrith. No HWYPs for me. Clear blue skies and straight roads. It would have been great having a ferry load of hearses!!!, I mean Stageas crossing the Hawkesbury though. :woot:

Hang on a minute, not many straight roads out that way....I know now....the car made them straight :rofl:

Yeah I agree Duncan. I think myself and Scott (Captain 260RS) were on the table with you.

Definitely made a mistake when I ordered the large pizza, but glad we had some other helps finish it off. Was great food, and a great day. I will give the video edit another shot this arvo when I get home from work.

Anyway, a great outing with very responsible drivers...including that one who stopped for the echidna. Thanks to Theo for the drive organisaition and Craig for the Trackside arrangement. My appetite has been whetted so I want more!!!!

Cant wait for footage man.

Have to ssy everyting was orgsnised very well..loved that alot of guys bring wives and kids along aswel..

Looks and sounds like it was fun guys , sad I missed it. I would have still been over the limit in the morning, so no driving for me . I blame Jerry and Jose.

Friend at work spotted you all on Epping Road (?) and commented on how well behaved everyone was. He's an Evo driver and is obviously used to tools, so congrats on keeping up the good standards of SAU community.

Nick I'll see you at Texi to give you the brake lines.

    • Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.
    • 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
    • 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.
