Oil pressure sandwich plate size?

[m17davis]

Hey guys, I just bought a oil pressure gauge and I was wondering what size adapter I need. I know I need one with the 1/8in port. But what about the fitting?

[Fivefingerdeathpunch]

Just screw it into the stock oil pressure gauges spot, the dummy light isnt needed.

Though I still think you need a reducer to make it screw in.

I knew where it was supposed to go.. But I can tell by eye that the fitting on the stock oil sensor is way bigger than the fitting on the electrical sending unit for the gauge. I needed to know what size adapter I need.

take the stock sensor out and go to the store with it, then match it all up. hardware store may be the place to go if the parts store dont have it.

3/8 to 1/8 npt fitting

do you think its possible to rig somethin up at a ace hardware?

[Scottydoggs]

ace is the place. i plugged my sensor hole with a brass plug. got it from ace. they got all sorts of stuff. tell the counter guy what your doing and they will help you out. they know where all the stuff is and it just flat out goes faster with their help.

bring the stock sensor and the new one, that way you cant f up at all.

sweet. omw there as we speak.

[Scottydoggs]

side note. get some thread sealant, or some Teflon tape to seal the threads.

[m17davis]

mission complete! thanks guys

[Scottydoggs]

now tuck them wires into some wire loom to keep them from harm.

So what size was it? Redcompg said 3/8 to 1/8, but the gauge I bought says it'll be 1/4 to 1/8 in the installation sheet online.

[m17davis]

it was 1/4. I bought the 3/8 and 1/4 just in case. it was under $6 at ace for both

[REDCRAPGP]

Hmm interesting hey at least I was 1/2 right lol
