GReddy oil pressure sensor is 1/8 PT threading.
I'm running a Touge Factory (TF) oil block. The oil block has 1/8 NPT threading.
I searched around on the web for a few hours to see how others solved it. I found some information but nothing that is a certain fix. I'm looking for your opinion on how to resolve it. Here's a few solutions I have in mind.
01. Put Teflon tape on the oil pressure sensors (GReddy and OEM) and put them in TF oil block. I just went out and tried screwing the GReddy sensor in the block, went in fine. Very smoothly. I'm thinking some Teflon tape and I'll be fine. Searched FA for a bit, I found some old posts where people recommended this as well.
02. Buy a Tomei piece and use that instead. Since the Tomei piece is -10 ports, I'd have to swap over -8 ports from my TF block to work with the lines I already have.
03. Find an adapter. I've found BSPT > NPT adapters, but not the other way around. BSPT is the same as PT. I see Defi makes an adapter; I'm trying to find out if it's the proper adapter right now.
04. Re-tap the TF ports to 1/8 PT. Least preferred way of fixing the problem.
Anyone else have any experience with this situation? If so, how did you resolve it?
