Is200 Oil Pressure Sensor

[petejenkin]

I need to know what the thread size is for the existing oil pressure sensor on the IS200, does anyone know.

I am basically going to extract it and put a tee piece in there for two other sensors, oil pressure and oil temp.

Also, can anyone help me by telling me where is the best place to put the boost sensor for the boost gauge, its an electronic type, not mechanical.

Thanks

I looked at doing this, but when it came to fit the t-piece there was not enough room, so didn't even get as far as removing the sender unit. The mechanic suggested I got a piece of braided hose to extend feed so that the t piece could be fitted. If you get anywhere, then please post your findings. Cheers

Ive sorted it now.

I managed to source some adaptors off an old MGB's brake lines of all things. The thread size is actually 1/8" UNC.

The problem came wth the lack of space to do anything so I had to put together a christmas tree arrangement. Here is a pic takenn from underneath of the new arrangement incorporating the SPA Design Temp Sensor, the SPA Design Pressure Sensor and the original pressure sensor which I put back in as a fail-safe:

Thanks for that Pete, appreciate you posting your findings. Will have to sort out a suitable adaptor :)
