Hi anyone know what thread the torx screw plug is in the 2.0 blacktop zetec block? I want to put to put my OPS in there, its about 6 inches to the left of the Ford Oil light sensor. I need to order an adaptor for my sender which is 1/8th NPT

Cheers Guys
Hammy

It's 1/4 npt the same as the oil pressure switch. Ford used it to feed the the turbo on the focus Rs.

Is it ok to use this point on the Zetec block? I've just got my pressure sender through (1/8 NPT too) and was looking at having to buy an extension or t-piece adapter to replace the switch but if I can use the drilling next to it that would make things easier.

Just need to get an adapter then
