Hi all.

I've bought a new oil pressure sender from JK to run an aux VDO gauge and still have the pressure standard light.

The only way to fit it direct to the block I've been told (in front of the dizzy on a 1700cc type 4 engine) is to trim the tin wear, which I don't like the sound of.

A brain fart I had last night would be to fit a 45 degree elbow to the block to bring it above the tin wear and mount the sender unit to that.

The sender thread I believe is M10x1 and I'd need a male one end and female the other end to marry the two.

Anyone got any ideas what I need to look for or where I can find one?

Alternatively are there any other solutions people have come up with?
 
Have you tried eBay? Should be lots of choice on there, I'm on my phone so cannot link. :shadey:
 
Sorry, just realised you have a packaway engine. Therefore my response in void lol
 
VDO 5 bar oil pressure sender with 2 spades one for the gauge and one for the dash light oil pressure light, just remover your old oil pressure switch, have this on our bay/splitscreen and mk1 golf all running VDO gauges
 
I had the same problem bought, a coupling from "Deamon Tweeks" sorted

That number does not work and that search term just returns a load of charging sockets? :poke: :party0021:
