ford temp sneder nuts
I will attempt to buy nuts for the ford temp sender on crossflow - think the oil pressure sender end is the same. This will allow fitting of a round
crimp (lower profile & more secure) on terminal instead of the push on type that I have at the mo.
The sender end is not metric, most likley some imperial thread.
anyone interested in a nut or two? (note the fastener place may not have that size - anyone know what size it is BTW, around 4-5 mm ?)

I thought that most Forder senders were npt thread so a bsp might fit with care iirc

When thinking outside the box doesn't work any more, it's time to build a new box

no, this is the end that the wire goes on; about 10 mm long, 4-5 mm dia; the end that goes into the block is mpt as you say. on the left in this
piccy.

Not sure but I think that the connection on those is a push on fitting, similar to a crimp type terminal, but round in section. Hope that's
clear (ish). HTH Ray
To make a car go faster, just add lightness. Colin Chapman - OR - fit a bigger engine. Chippy

ARGGHHH!H!H!H!H!HH!!!!!!!!!
stop telling me it is a push connector jobby
It is theaded, I have the nuts to prove it 
I got 6, so 2 spare to whoever is interested, send me AE and I'll pop one in the post.
A nut + spring washer will be more securethan any push on connect surely?
