So I wanted to add a dual post sender to keep the light and have a gauge. Well upon trying to install the grease gun hose I noticed it wouldn't fit. The sensor that came out appears to be an OEM one. Then I saw a helicoil installed. I haven't found what the size is. I'm guessing it is a 10mx1.0 helicoil but then why wouldnt the 1/8 npt fit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Seem to remember the thread size is the same as is the diameter but the NPT is tapered and the oil switch is parallel and seals with an alloy washer.
Someone please correct me if I'am wrong (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) . |
