4AGE Sensor Thread Size
Does anyone know the thread size for the oil presure sender and temp sender for a 4AGE Silvertop engine? The ones I have don't fit
(⅛"NPTF Thread )
Thanks...

Apparently it is a 1/8 BSPT 28. I had the same problem getting an adaptor. Ended up re threading the sensor and using some ptfe tape...
Thanks

Indeed 1/8"BSP 28tpi, where normal smiths and VDO sensors have 1/8"NPT27tpi, do not attampt to fit the npt sensor in the bsp hole you will
ruin the thread and the castblock is known to break sometimes in the part, the wall is very very thin.
the apropriate threaded adapter can be bought for 6,50 pounds at thinkautomotive, just order online they're very quick and very good service. I
ordered one last week for the v8 and it got here in 3 days (based in holland)
anyway here's the link
http://www.thinkauto.com/acatalog/Price_List_Various_163.html
look for part number MFS10-3-3
it's a very nice small adaptor not the hidious copper block that equus used to have.
