[DMCForum] Oil Pressure Sending Units



Stock DeLo was 1/8" British Standard Pipe Thread (BSPT): 28 Threads
Per Inch, actual pipe diameter 3/8".  Calibrated 0-80 PSI.

Most US aftermarkets are 1/8" National Pipe Thread (NPT): 27 Threads
Per Inch, actual pipe diameter 3/8". Usually calibrated 0-100 PSI.

No telling what is on any given car now. Mine had been converted to
underdash gauge with capillary tube. Original fitting dilled out to
1/2" NPT (that's 3/4" folks). Since in dash gauge works excellent
(test by grounding sending wire) I went back to stock style sender
from John Hervey. Stepped down with brass 1/2" NPT to 1/8" BSPT
adapter from McMaster Carr (http://www.mcmaster.com).

BTW: Just about every fitting on stock engine is 1/8" BSPT. Won't find
that in any US parts house, but can make reasonable facsimile from
1/8" NPT with 10x1mm metric die.
