Mechanical Oil Pressure Gauge

Album 15455

When fitting a Gauge to the A-series, you should know that the oil pressure switch threads are 1/8 BSPT (british standard pipe tapered). It screws directly into the oil pump housing.

CAUTION: Many gauge kits use Standard threads. Use an adapter fitting.

If you instead use a Tee connector, you can fit both the sensor and a separate gauage. Tees are available in the usual auto supply stores such as Repco or Oreilly's.

Right: this engine has the Tee (and an oil cooler)

New Method - flexible hose connnected to pump
Album 21581

A word of caution with Tee-d sensors: they tend to break, perhaps due the weight of the sender at the end of the tee piece and the vibration of the engine. The solution is to use a braided hose from the oil sender hole out to the bodywork, and then mounted the tee with senders in place.
