Prof. Monkey Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Hi guys, I come once again before your infinite wisdom to ask a humble question: Where can I put the sensors in for a oil pressure and oil temperature gauge? I believe lots of people use Mocal oil take off adapters, if so where can I find one? Does it work? Now I must go I have much preparing to do, for my pupils - they are to learn the fine art of science and the ways of the world! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonball Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I do these remote filter heads that contain capability of taking two sensore as part of the oil filter relocation kit and they work well Is that the black art of science or have they stopped bunging you lot in the river to see if you float yet?

jase_93tt Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Speaking of installing meters - Ive get an omori triple meter set waiting to go on - they are a mixture of electrical (oil temp, oil pressure) and mechanical (boost pressure). Should I be aware of anything before the install (ie. parts that I may need to ensure a simple installation). Ta J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof. Monkey Posted May 4, 2005 Author Share Posted May 4, 2005 Thanks Paul, can you give me some more details of these relocation kits? Are they just so you can have a sandwhich plate for the sensors or are they for putting the oil filter in a completely different place? P.s. I live in East Yorkshire, where televisions are the work of trickery, roads consist of crushed up bettles and horse dung and petrol is a thick gloopy liquid we extract from the ground.

Digsy Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I believe that there is an off-the-shelf Lexus part that will accept an oil pressure sensor. The part number was posted up here a few weeks ago. You can put the oil temperature sensor in the sump plug. There's an off-the-shelf adapter by Blitz for that, too. HTH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prof. Monkey Posted May 4, 2005 Author Share Posted May 4, 2005 How's the whippet? Still preforming tricks,lost its leg in a terrible cambelt accident, I tried to tell "Mr Mittens" not to torque the pulley up so tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSZ Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Good point Paul. The lexus union bolt thing is perfect if you just want the oil pressure sensor fitted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Just out of interest, Red, where does the Lexus bolt actually go? Have you got a pic of it in place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
