As you guys know..I built a parted out engine..now I have it semi-running (tuning it) and I put a bolt in this hole (pictured) because it leaks a ton of oil. What went here? And what is the thread? It's not 1/8 npt. I have my own sensors connected to the Autronic so I don't need a sensor there if that was what was there. Picture responses are preferred, but I'll accept a description. Thanks!

1/8 BSP and 1/8 NPT are very close. the oem sensor is just for the dummy light. you can re-tap it for 1/8 NPT and clean out the hole and screw in your sensor

QUOTE (Smaay @ Feb 27, 2013 - 7:18 AM)  1/8 BSP and 1/8 NPT are very close. the oem sensor is just for the dummy light. you can re-tap it for 1/8 NPT and clean out the hole and screw in your sensor So is it BSP or BSPT? BSP is straight threads and BSPT is tapered. I thought about that since I have a 1/8 NPT tap. I had to buy a tap to make a bung in my intake piping for an air temp sensor. I just don't want aluminum shavings in my engine. I would rather get a BSPT plug if that's what fits. I'm probably going to drive to the junkyard here today and get the sensor/switch that belongs there and just cut off the wires on the end. -------------------- -Jay
