wthorne Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 okay i bought a JDM compo gauge? I know the tach is easy, wrap it around the negative coil wire. they send an oil pressure sending unit that screws in the block? Okay, where does it go and how do i know that the threads are the same. They did not send adapters? Is every engine block threaded the same???? PLEASE HELP??

wthorne Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 Why please forgive me for my hasty typing errors. It seems that I was not as precise as I usually am in my explanation of coherent understanding to the minute percentage of brain capabilities in this genre! In other words, I was in a hurry, but you got the point so can you help me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wthorne Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 google has been useless. there is nothing about my topic out there? I am pretty familiar with computers since i have a masters in Computer Science. I cant find any matching topics here either. I am only trying to find out some things not try to start an argument. Thank you for you help, Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trbulnt Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Oil Pressure sending unit is usually located just above the oil filter. I would remove the factory unit and compare the threads with the unit that you received in your kit. If the threads are different than take both parts to any autoparts store or hardware store and tell them what you want to accomplish. This can usually be done with a brass adapter.

BLOZ UP Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 (edited) The oil pressure sending unit is near the oil filter location. I think above it a bit and to the left. The OEM sending unit is huge, you can't miss it. The threads are 1/8" BSPT. That's right BSPT. I know for a fact the Greddy pressure sending units are a direct fit (I have one). So, if you have a "JDM" one, it's possible it might fit as well. Otherwise, for Autometer gauges and whatnot, you have to get adapters.
