VY Binnacle Gauges Fitting to S Pack

[ScottB_33]

Just finished fitting a set of binnacle gauges to a VY S pack mates utility the other day. We have fitted the gauges ok but I havent fitted the oil pressure circuit yet as I was hoping others here could let me know the best way to hook up the pressure sender unit as the six cylinders have a different fitting to the V8s. The kit of course is suited to a V8 but there is the ability for an adapter to be fitted to mount the sender but I thought id ask for ideas.

Hi ScottB_33.
From what you are saying it is a factory gauge and sender unit?

I installed an aftermarket which was easy through the use of a t-piece fitting, available in all auto shops.
After fitting the t-piece it was a stretch to get the original dummy light sender plugged in but it just fit. The attached photo shows the end result. The blue wire is the sender wire going back to the gauge.

Thanx Mark, your a legend. Wasnt quite sure how was going to run the twp pressure units but now is all ok. Dont worry about the PM as you have answered my question.

Thanx again

Mark, what was the socket size used on the factory oil sender ? 27mm ?? I'm trying to remove my sender from the back of my LS1 deep, down in the valley.

Thanks
