Windsor oil pressure senders
« on: February 17, 2022, 12:35:52 am »
Like a lot of us I have more confidence in the readings from aftermarket gauges than the original factory dashboard ones. I run Autometer gauges (electric) and the sender for the oil pressure gauge just replaced the factory one. Have thought I would now like to have the factory oil pressure gauge working in conjuction with the Autometer gauge, just found this extension online eClassics 1964-1973 Ford Fairlane Oil Pressure Sending Unit Dual Port Extension For V8 that will do the job but can't source one in Australia. Anyone know where I can get one??

Thought about that same scenario myself, was contemplating getting the original or a new one and taking it to an engineering place to get them to drill and tap it to suit a second sender unit, as long as they can recognise the existing thread, which shouldn’t be too hard, or charge you more than the cost of an imported one, Reborn…,

Couldn't you just add a T piece to the original extension?

Geoff that is where I started looking for a T piece and had no luck, really would like to find one like the one in the picture I posted.

Exactly what I was looking for, now I have the part number I can contact Aussie based suppliers.
Thanks for the heads up 👍👍👍
