Oil pressure and temp gauges

Post by serenitycamper »

Hello peeps,

Just wondering if there is a sandwich plate available for the t3 that will allow you to take the oil feed from below the oil filter?
If not how do you guys attach all the sensors for the gauges?

Also what I the thread size for the oil filter? I've found a sandwich plate supplier but don't know the thread size to go for?!

Advice would be greatly appreciated!

Use the low pressure oil switch port, between cylinders 3 & 4, either with a T piece or a length of steel braided pipe to a remote t piece to fit the sender and refit the switch
The switch is an M10 X 1 thread
