Just donated £20 to the server costs by the way! My way of saying thank you for information past and future.

I wasted hours with two tee pieces, copper washers, copper washer with rubber in the middle, tapping threads, drilling shoulders and now have biggest oil leak ever.

Oil filter sandwich plate maybe? Pressure sender with oil light feed? (Would rather not put all eggs in one basket if it failed!)

Many thanks.

I just used a t piece off the oil feed fitting in the standard position for gauge/switch.

The oil feed shouldn't affect this at all.

are the copper washers in good order and seated properly?

Use a standard t-piece with an outley for oil feed to turbo and an outlet to a dual pole oil pressure sensor that incorporates a warning light switch. If the sensor fails you will get zero reading, not an imcorrect one. Well, providing you use a decent quality, VDO or Stack one.

OK, thanks, I am just looking at a VDO unit now.
