Oil pressure sender adaptor

[chris212]

Sheared off the reducing adaptor for the oil pressure sender ( oh how I laughed)
Can anyone tell me what I need to replace it- thread size ect? It's a pre cat. Thanks

Did exactly the same a few weeks ago!

What you need is a 1/2" UNF male to 1/8" -27 NPT female adapter. I bought one from https://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/

Couldn't find one on their website but they had them in stock.

Thanks. Ordered from tweeks. Must be more gentle!

You are not alone, I snapped one of these last year, it's a poor design as the wall thickness is very thin between the 2 threads, I made a longer version to avoid the problem happening again.
