mattyp182 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Im going to be fitting a oil temp gauge at weekend. Im going to use the spair bolt hole above the oil filter and have got a m 12x 1.5 to fit the sensor. My question is should i use any type of sealent on the sensor to the block.

mattyp182 Posted August 31, 2016 Author Share Posted August 31, 2016 On the m12x1.5 to 1/8 converter and the sensor or just the converter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich260 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 (edited) From block to adaptor was a washer. From adaptor to sensor I used PTFE tape. Sorry, should have been more specific on my first response Edited August 31, 2016 by Rich260 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im going to use the spair bolt hole above the oil filter and have got a m 12x 1.5 to fit the sensor. My question is should i use any type of sealent on the sensor to the block. Can you please try to take a pic of that bolt above oil filter? Just want to see where exactly it is as might re-locate my sensor there as well.
