Ive stripped the thread on the back of the block when putting the oil sensor back in place (sorting out oil feed for turbo) on a D series engine. JB weld has been holding ok for now but the car has only been doing very short runs I want something a bit more HARDCORE should I look a engine block epoxy? If so anyone have any good recommendations. Thanks in advance

 

bump!

 

I would re-tap it and get an adapter to fit into the oil pressure switch..

 

i heard u cant retap it

 

LOL. Why not?

As long as you don't drill through the oil passage just tap it for a NPT thread.

 

People. This is a 7 year old thread you decided to bump.
