hi all

forgive me if i sound really silly but having trouble getting my head around fitting a oil pressure sender for a oil gauge on my scooby.

from what i've been reading on the net, you can use the hole where the stardard oil sender is but i what to use both (standard and aftermarket senders)

can any one give me some pointers? i dunno if i'm reading it right being still half asleep

thanks

As above, but ask yourself WHY, unless the new sender is physically too big to fit in the space vacated by the OE switch, you want both?

The OE switch is redundant on fitting a gauge, by the time it lights up your engine is fekked.........

arhhh! i get it now, the guide i been reading didnt say that (i was reading a usa forum )

the guide i was reading was telling me to remove the Alternator as the original Oil Pressure Plug is under it, then the bit i didnt understand was fit the aftermarket sender, then fit the original sender didnt explaine that you would need a T-PIECE

Thanks guys, i understand it now, off to order the gauge i think

My Defi gauge has a sender slightly SMALLER tahn the oil pressure switch.
That item is now on a shelf in my garage.

+1
Oil pressure warning light or Engine Fcuked light as its commomly known as, comes on at 2.1 psi - by this time the big ends would have shat themselves.

Just plumbed mine in this afternoon in the factory location, As above i`ve taken the OEM one off and replaced it the defi sender.

Anyone know anyone who is selling a Defi BF oil temp gauge in amber??
