I have a cheap "biltema" T-piece, but you should be able to get it from ang hi perf store. Title: Re: autometer temp and pressure sender. Post by: bang on October 18, 2008, 20:49:17 pm try demon tweeks uk they got the stuff.. ::)

I have a cheap "biltema" T-piece, but you should be able to get it from ang hi perf store. I've got pretty much the same setup including the "bilhelvete" ;D t-piece but I am not sure how accurate the temp gauge readings are as the wind beneath the car must cool the sump and the sender ??? (even that the sender is facing to rear of the car) Title: Re: autometer temp and pressure sender. Post by: benssp on October 20, 2008, 08:06:17 am what bits have you got then ben and where did you get them? I've got an Autometer temp and pressure gauge, If you've got a deep sump you could probably drill and tap it to fit the temp sender ;D Title: Re: autometer temp and pressure sender.

Post by: benssp on October 20, 2008, 10:49:55 am you could use this http://www.jegs.com/p/Moroso/746564/10002/-1 (http://www.jegs.com/p/Moroso/746564/10002/-1) the black one. you could fit this where your full flow comes out of the case and fit the temp sender ;D

this is what I used with my autometer senders, worked perfect, I still use it today with my vdo senders, same way, simple and effective... Title: Re: autometer temp and pressure sender.
