Title: Thread size and pitch for 2.3L water and oil sending units
Post by: Bobcat Racer on August 06, 2010, 03:48:09 PM
Hi All,
I'm installing some Stewart Warner mechanical gauges in my Bobcat and I'm trying to figure out the size and pitch of the threads for both the oil pressure and water temperature in the block.  Any assistance would be appreciated.

The oil sending unit is 1/8" NPT unless you remove the adaptor from the head then its 1/4" NPT. The temp sender is !/4" NPT. There is usually a place for the temp on either side of the block.
