Oil Pressure Gauge (Where & Size Threads?)
I have a gauge, but am not 100% sure where to install it, and what size threads to use....
I was told to put a Tee Fitting in between the Oil sensor and block......Is this the sensor where I should put it??
If so, what size threads are it???

thats the sensor, but i dunno what the thread size is off the top of my head. use some teflon tape on anything that isnt a compression fitting so it doesnt leak (like the T your going to install)

um in cant exactly picture where that is but believe ur supposed to put it where the oil pressure sending unit is. which is right near the oil filter.

OK......so does anyone know the size?
Worst case scenario, I need to pull it, and size it at the store. But the autopart stores around here don't stock those T-fittings......
I hate to have to pull it off, measure it, put it back in.....order fitting from summit, and then pull it again, and finally install it [:@]

The arrow is right over the filter.....to the top-left is the timing chain cover, and to the bottom-left is the oil pan......I took it from under the car on the front drivers side

on earlier foxes like the motor I got mine from they came with a pipe thread extention and sending unit screwed in on a angle...who needs to even t in so the stock gauge works..do away with it... mech ftw= more accurate...here is what the extention looks like:

ya mjr thats what mine looks like. i think thats why i was confused with the first pic
take ur sending unit off and bring it to someplace like sears hardware and find the T-fitting there.
