Oil Pressure Sender

[SATORI893]

Hey guys, I am putting in a Drift Oil Pressure gauge in (haven't ordered in yet) but I have asked them if they have a 'T' piece so I can keep the oil lamp as well, they say they have a few different adapters and they need to know the thread size and pitch, I have looked in the service manual but cannot find it in there, I thought they would know, can anyone tell me these two measurements or tell me where I can get the info, I have googled it but can't seem to find it, if no-one knows off hand I will have to try toyota and see if they can tell me, just don't want to have to pull the sendor out to find out.

Cheers.

Generally they are 1/8 NPT(National Pipe Taper), but I'm not 100% if the Aurion is the same, haven't looked to be honest. If it is the outer diameter of the threads should be approximately 0.405".

Sorry I couldn't be more help, but hope that gets you out of trouble

That's cool Trent, gives me something to work from, turns out the Drift site was a USA one and they probably would have known if I gave them the engine type (2GR-FE), they didn't realize I was from Australia but they are passing my enquiry on to Drift Australia.

Thanks for that.

1/8 NPT (PT1/8) is correct for 2GR-FE, with a thread depth of 7mm.

Drift Australia got back me regarding adapters with, The tread pitch on the Toyota Aurion should be 1/8"-28 BSPT to screw in an adaptor.
