oil Temp sender Sealing
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi all just wondering what people have used to seal the temp sender. The kit came with a washer with a rubber centre, but it appears to be leaking past the threads. PTFE ?? or is that a no no.


Thanks for any help.

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

Mine & the vans are in the speedo housing. just put them in with a bit of loctite. I guess it depends on the sensor?

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

i have had one of those temp sensors, they do take a bit of sealing, its that crappy washer and O ring PTFE tape with oil is a no no it dont work!

use some winns black RTV sealent with that crappy seal and O ring

hope this helps

mm a bit of a pain. I will try some bearing fit.

well got it sealed and my attempt at getting an oil temp reading, probably not ideal but I'm getting a reading, which is better than none..
