O.K. I posted this in the civic forum, but no one bothered to reply. I have a d16y8 motor and I need to know what adapter, or what size the hole in the block is so I can get the sending unit from an autometer guage to fit. I called autometer's "tech" support, and they told me to call honda. Any thing would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

they use the same fitting for nitrous installs. go to ur local speed shop and ask for the fitting.

 

you might possibly need a:

1/8 BSP male to 1/8 NPT female adaptor

check the instructions...

t..

 

PS

it is recommended to run an oil line and position hte sensor off hte block to prevent damage to the blocks thread...

 

If you don't do it that way...you'll have happen to you what happened to me...I had a fitting break off, sprayed oil everywhere! definetly buy the stainless steel braided line from autometer...it'll work with their pressure sensor unit, and mount the unit on the firewall

 

Check The Old One, they have a how-to on there that I followed when doing mine.

That's my pic everyone is using. I shouldh've put my name on it. . . .

And it's BSPT, the T is for tapered.
