hi all

how cam i install an oil temp meter in the easy way?

im talking about the sensor

 

"The oil temp gauge will need another adaptor - Le Mans motorsport sell them - there are two options - sump plug and gallery plug under the intercooler. I prefer the gallery plug, even though it's more work to fit, as it gives a better indication of operating temperature. The part is an M18 to 1/8 NPT adaptor. Will dig the URL and part number out tonight... Cost is around £5."quote from dnb.

i am fitting one also - a friend gave me the above info.

cheers,

Weava

there is no risk by drooling the oil gallery?

 

ain't that sure - but i guess if done properly then no.

it appears to be a orthodox practice.

sump is probably easiest,
