you have one ? pics ? where should i put the sending unit tee in to the stock one ?

I THINK the stock sending unit is next to the oil filter and has 1 wire comming out of it. There is a sensor there, but that could be the knock sensor

Summit has the stuff "T" fittings and such to get it working, but I real PIA to figure out which size they are

I used to have the autometer phantom oil pressure gauge.

You don't need a T.. just remove the stock one. It is next to the starter. NOT the one next to the oil filter, thats your knock sensor.

The stock sending unit only comes on when theres 5 or less psi. which is useless anyways by that time, your engine is screwed. so just remove the stock sending unit and put in the autometer in place. And you'll need to run a wire to interior to the gauge.

Best way to run wires from the cab to the engine is through the steering shaft grommet ;)

did you just hook the stock wire up to the new pressure sensor? oil light didn't come on right ?

i ordered the oil press sending unit to day.

Does the aftermarket sender fit in the oil without an adapter?
