oil problem solved maybe

[Jeremy_R]

oil problem solved maybe. I found that the pressure sensor is bad. The one that was in there does not apear to be stock. It had 1/8 NPT threads on it. Can anyone tell me what the right threads are for the sensor so I can get the right metric to npt adaptor. I'm going to forget the sensor and install a oilpressure gauge.

If the threads are already npt why convert it back. Get a gauge that goes up to 100 pounds.

It is for sure solved. I got a metric adapter kit for my oil pressure gauge. Fired it up and up came the oil pressure. I'm going to repluumb it with copper tubing and put a tee in to put a new sensor just for grins.

How many pounds do you have? My 3 cyl. Buck has about 85 I think and I have a copper line on it. The other one doesn't have a gauge yet, but will one day.

It is running around 80 psi. I was able to put a tee in it and hook up the idot light also. Installed the copper line today and every thing is good.
