how many terminals has it got?usually the one you get with a gauge will just be designed to run the gauge.

a query about this also, was going to be changing the oil sender to the one i got with the guage but does this allow me to conect the new gauge and the oil light or is it one or the other??

any help would be great

try a company called 'think auto' for these types of bits.

not sure either tbh.but would have thought any sender will run any guage as long as it's electronic.

there is a place that sell's thread adaptor's,google it.im using an oil pressure sender from one of our generators at work.it has 2 terminals,so it will run both the oil light(on the dash)and my guage.the thread size you need is m14 1.5 pitch iirc.

have a read of this thread

ive got an aftermarket oil pressure gauge for my car which has a sender unit with it but the thread is too small to fit anywhere in the engine (the grub screws on the back of the block rounded off). can u use an oil presure sender unit off the c20let with my gauge?
