shades - 23/5/06 at 09:12 PM

Are there any suppliers for pressure gauge senders? I need one for my 4age. I did get one in my avon kit but the thread appears to be slightly different. seems to be an M10 but with a 27 thread?

Any suggestions?

think I have answered my own question... I need a M10x1 female to 1/8" NPT male adaptor... Demon tweaks do them... Ta anyway

the 4age block where the original oil pressure sender fits is NOT 1/8 NPT 27 it is 1/8 BSPT 28.

Just in case you don't know BSPT is a parrallel thread and NPT is tapered. I just rethreaded my new sender with the small side of a 1/8 NPT 27 dis so in affect it became 1/8 27tpi parrallel thread.

Thanks rusty,

Thought i had it sussed last night, but was back in garage scratching head again...

Still dont understand the differece between a 27 and 28 thread. Surly if I rea thread the 27 to be parallel it will still be a 27 thread? or is the difference so small it not make much difference?
