I need to remotely mount my Oil pressure sender unit but am having trouble trying to work out what size of the current boss is.

My ETB sender unit is 1/8 nptf and it only goes in a tint bit so obviosly not that.

Anyone ?

Doesnt the ETB senders for BEC installations have to be remote mounted??? Have a check of the instructions before going further. Im sure i read something about it when fitting my DD2.

Yes i am doing that and have source a bit of kit here:

But dont know what thread i need.

Hi Moa...

Is it the original you are remotely mounting or the ETB one? Our original (Kwak) sender is still in the engine... solid mounted. We have a Spa one which is remotely mounted. IIRC the sender is 1/8 NPT male... this thread fits 1/8 BSPTr and 1/8 BSP female. Use a layer of PTFE tape to ensure a good joint. Can't beat a good joint you can't...

I am remotely mounting both sender units using the original hole and its this hole i am trying to find the measurement for.

The engine block thread is 1/4 NPT... we used a reducer to take from 1/4 NPT to 1/8 NPT.

Cheers steve thanks fo that.

Still alittle confused on the battery front dont supose you could help ?

Im thinking that my battery tray isnt as complete as yours but still it should be easy to route.

From my starter motor at the engine i have a thick black cable with a rubber cover on where does this go ?

The other thick black cable on the battery without the red rubber cover where does this go ?

Im more than likely getting on your nerves now ! God help me im only trying to connect the battery i havent even started the main wiring yet.

Just found out that the boss that the original sender goes in is a 1/8 BSP so im all sorted now.
