Bodo and I have Planned out the North Meetup, North bound BP (Morayfield Bruce HWY) @ 8am departing at 8:30 for a 9:45 arrival at the Cruise start point. Myself and Bodo are the contacts for this meeting point if you are going to be late on the day.

Excellent! Thanks! Looks like the scouting run will be the weekend before and I'll keep you in the loop.

JUST MAKING SURE I UNDERSTAND THIS AS HAVENT BEEN BEFORE,WE ARE PAYING ON THE DAY AND DROPPING OFF THE TOYS?,OR DO WE NEED TO FILL OUT THE SMITH FAMILY FORMS AND SEND TO ADDRESS PROVIDED ON THE ATTACHED FORMS?.WILL OTHER SOFT TOYS BE ACCEPTED AS COULD PROBABLY DONATE A FEW MORE IF NEEDED,JUST WANTING TO MAKE SURE THAT I GET IT RIGHT,LOOKING FORWARD TO THE CRUISE,MAY EVEN SPRUCE THE CAR UP A BIT.

Bring money and toys on the day. Other toys are more than welcome as long as they are new and fit in with the specs in the attachment on the first page. Definitely spruce up the car, we want them to all e shiny for the show and shine.

If anyone requires an invoice for tax purposes, please message me.

Count LSI33 in. Where is the south side meet.? I promise to park with captain. Keep our lions together.

We're having a bit of trouble with a south side meet. We have got one organised in Cleveland though if that's reasonably close to you?

That's East not south.

Southside would be like Springwood..

I have offered to organize the Southside cruise/meet just need to get my car running this weekend and I'll defiantly do it.

Yup. But that's what we've been able to organise so far. Our South side leads have fallen astray.

As long as you can definitely do it and not definatly do it, more than happy to have a chat :P Let me know/

    • 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.
    • ..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.
