Does anyone have any info or experience in how to plumb in an oil pressure gauge into the oil supply onn a '65 2000sc? As in what is what thread is in the T adapter you need?
Thanks
 
Not me. Suggest you pull the oil pressure switch(idiot light sender) and either measure its thread (you do have a thread gauge?),or take it to a place that sells such gauges. FWIW, I can tell you that Mazda MX5 oil gallery fittings and their warning light sender are all 1/8 BSPT and there are many fittings available in that thread. unlikely to be an american thread.

There is also a gallery plug on the side of the block, or you could also fit a TC oil pipe which is tapped for a sender.

@Dave1966 - I have an adaptor to fit this gallery if useful to you. It gives sufficient clearance to fit a standard TC style drum-shaped pressure sensor without having to fit TC external oil pipes.

I'll see if I can find it if useful to you? It's new and never fitted.

Hi.
Thanks for that, I'll gladly take you up on the offer. Let me know how much for the adapter and postage. I can send it through PayPal if you use that, or bank transfer.
Regards
Dave

Thanks Dave. I'll dig it out tomorrow and send pics. I'll PM you then. Don't want a lot for it.

Cheers
