Sandwich plate Oil pressure sensor....Help please
Hi
My oil pressure gauge has been playing up of late done the usual checks of all the connections etc. And I think it needs replacing I ordered this one (picture below) before taking of the skid plate underneath the car and checking. and no surprise its the wrong one.! http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/h...psy1t9dmrh.jpg This is the sandwich plate that is fitted at the moment (picture below), any ideas where I can get a replacement sensor.? or can I adapt the one I have bought to fit.? http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/h...psinx5imux.jpg |
Might help if u tell us what gauges u have
|
Sorry Prosport gauges..;)
|
Its ok Ihave found one, I forgot I need the sensor for the stepper gauges
I am a plank sometimes :) |
So you have halfway decent gauges, but have them fitted via a sandwich plate?
Yep: plank. |
They were already fitted to the car when I bought it..
May get round to changing it one day Don't think it to much of a job to get rid of the sandwich plate and put the sensor in the right place where it's supposed to be |
Yep ditch the sandwich and use a remote two way fitting for the pressure from the oe location under the alt and a screw in bung adaptor over cylinder 3 for temp.
|
That's my plan ;)
Cheers pal |
I've always fitted mine into the block but the irony is in the Defi handbook it pictures a sandwich plate lol :lol1:
|
That's because afaik only Subaru think out where the gauges SHOULD go.
And since they have done that, it seems rude not to...... |
Isn't the reason the defi instructions say that because they are generic to all cars. Plus it is easier for the average person to fit and a lot more simple to buy a sandwich plate then the correct adapters.

If you buy the generic sandwich plate for the required model yes, They dont do model specific instructions.

That's cheaper than a sandwich plate and puts the sender in the correct spot.:) |
