Title: oil temp gauge fitting
Post by: the hat on February 09, 2010, 03:07:43 PM
is there anywhere that an oil temp gauge sender can be fitted without buying an oil filter sandwich plate

You could get a tee adaptor for the oil pressure sensor and fit one in there, or get a bung welded onto the oil pan - but that\'s more work than a sandwhich plate.
 
Just thought of another one - you can get a sump plug tapped with a 1/8 npt hole - for just this purpose - but might make oil changes fiddly.
