HOW TO: Oil Temperature Sender/Gauge fitting on 3rd Cylinder
Have edited title so it's a little easier to source for others :-)
V4 JDM STI
Where ACTUALLY is this 'bung' above the 3rd cylinder? I've had a pretty good look around and can't find it? also whats the actual fitting process? does my sunder screw straight in? do i need to buy something that it fits into - to screw into the block? there's plenty 'how to' on here when i use the search, but not step by steps or anything.
all help appreciated

One of these,

Use some PTFE tape on the adaptor and on your temp sensor before fitting to give you a good seal(NOT insulation tape, lol, for anyone that remembers that fiasco)
Gaz.

Splended fellas - thanks for this!
would ordinary shrink wrap be alright to protect the wires from where it's situated to firewall?
Have quoted the information incase Ebay goes tats up and the advert disappears
