Ive got an Autometer Phantom oil temp gauge. It has the temp probe directly connected to the back of the gauge via long piece of hard pipe, with a big nut at one end. I presume I need to install this in the blanking plug above no 3 cylinder. But how the hell do i get it through to the engine bay as its quite chunky. I ran the boost line through a grommit under the master cylinder, but cant see how this sensor will fit through that grommit.

cheers

i'm sure there is an easier way but as a worst case...

strip off some of the hard pipe (cockpit side) cut the cable feed through the gromit then reconnect using a connector block and cover the block using insulation tape

Thanks, but you cant cut it as it had something like ether? inside for gauging the temp.
