Does anyone know what thread the oil pressure switch is on a Crossflow???

[orionmojo]

cotton?

 

[MightySprocket]

is that a clue to the new engine?

it could be for the turbo crossflow experiment

[MightySprocket]

oh

[john_3.0s]

As i recal its a very odd one thats actually slightly tapered, the only thing you would get to match it would be a take-off adapter or the original sensor switch.

[Morley]

It's a general enquirey... Not for the magical mystery engine tho

[w p e]

1/2inch x19 tpi just run a tap through to check

If it's a fine taper thread it sounds like NPT

[V8ian]

1/2inch x19

 

Fairly certain the thread size is 1/4 BSP, which is .518"o/d and 19tpi, 11.8mm tapping drill, if you are measuring a taper thread it is hard to get the O/D right, but the thread in the block will be a parralell thread and the fittings will more than likely be BSPT [T for Taper]

It is possible it is a National Pipe Tthread, but unlikely as NPT is an American thread form, and not normally used over here unless you are using braded fitting

Thanks guys... Just the job

[105Speed]

I've got some adaptors in stock for oil pressure gauges if that helps Ben

 

I take it this is for the oil feed for the turbo..
