bit of a long shot but has anyone got a magnetic oil trap knocking about? the one that goes on the back of the sump where that plate thing that holds the pickup pipe is? all i really need is the boss so that i can fit an oil temp gauge. On 20th Oct, 2015 Tom Fenton said:

Why not just drill/tap the oil filter housing? Wouldn't this be easier? It's measuring the temperature of the oil before it hit's the main bearings after all?

im going to just machine a flat block to remote mount the filter to bring the oil through 90degrees so it comes out upwards towards the plugs. put a temp sender in that then. |

yeah, but the threads are probably stripped, the face is warped and it'll be held on with halfords 'glass' instant gasket... On 17th Nov, 2014 Tom Fenton said:

Dave, everyone else suggests fitting the oil temp sensor in the sump, to read the mean sump temp, NOT the one feeding the mains.. I haven't decided yet, but keep the suggestions coming....

vegard, I think that question has been asked before, and nobody could agree. I think iain's idea is the simplest Team www.sheepspeed.com Racing

I think I miss understood you simple boy! I thought you meant add a sandwich plate between oil filter housing and block, and tap thread into there? Team www.sheepspeed.com Racing

thats another easy option, only thing is it will bring the oil filter out. not much harder to put the remote filter in, honest |
