NOTE:
A majority of this procedure involves moving around engine components and lines in order to access the oil pressure sensor. It is helpful to have some straps or bunjee cords handy in order to help keep these out of your way as you work. What is HIGHLY CRITICAL are the 4 clean shop towels listed above. You will be lifting the intake manifold off the head and potentially exposing critical engine components to a dirty environment. It is strongly recommended that you have clean and lint-free towels available to block your intake ports as soon as you remove the intake manifold.
As you remove the sensor, a small amount of oil may drop down to the floor. It may be prudent to place a rag, small container, or square of cardboard undernear the portion of engine you're working on to catch potential drips.
As the hose fitting will interfere with the block as you install the adapter, only install the hose fitting after you have hand tightened the adapter back onto the block.
You're now ready to connect the copper hose to the approriate sender unit. Once complete, reverse the processes from the 'Accessing The Sensor' section. Be sure to verify that all lines are clipped back in, all wiring is snugged back down into their fittings, your revervoir bracket is bolted down tightly and the reservoir attached with circlips fully seated. Remember to remove all four towels from the head and insure that all square O-rings on the intake manifold are seated correctly before bolting it back down. Finally, bolt the intake manifold snugly, verifying all five bolts.
Congratulations… your gauge sender adapter install is complete. You're now ready to install your gauge and wire it up!
