Thumbs up

If you are thinking of fitting the oil pressure gauge sender in the same location as the oil pressure switch, located under the alternator 'Demon-Tweeks' do a remote fitting kit. You will need to get the right threaded connector to connect it into the boss in the block. I got another sump plug and drilled and tapped it to take the oil temp sender. When you fit the oil pressure gauge you will find even at idle it is running 6 bar there are a number of threads about this in this forum from what I read it seems to be the norm when the oil is cold. Have fun Steve
