Sometimes,I feel like Peter Griffen having to wear a helmet and water-wings, and still drowning in his soup!

Default Need help with the T fitting!

I cant seem to be able to thread the T fitting in the engine, I got the 1/8 npt fitting, the sensor that came with the gauge is 1/8, but they only go in about 2 threads. The original low oil pressure sensor threads look a bit different.

re-tap the hole w/ a 1/8 npt tap....but coat it with a good amount of grease first. It'll work.
