Just buy a honda sensor tool... its much easier to use, but the socket will also work fine.

This is the sandwich adapter i'm using with my gauges:


Oil pressure and oil temp plugs into it.

Just a suggestion of course

It's not a bad idea... what brand is this one? Easy to use? No leak? What are the port size?

Brand is Al-Fit (distributed by Tein USA) but i'm sure you can find other alternatives out there as well (Golden Eagle i think?). Port sizes are written on the package,they work on my Defi gauges for Oil temp and oil pressure (used the 2 smaller holes, not the big brass plug one). hope that helps!
