Oil pressure gauge
anyone using an electric oil pressure gauge on an XE,just wondering where you put the oil pressure sensor,also is there an alternative to the large
baked bean can size sensor I have.

I know I'm a BEC, but I originally fitted my "baked bean can sender" hard mounted to the block via a brass adaptor. That lasted
about 30 miles!
This time the can is mounted to the chassis, using a P clip, and a 300mm stainless braided hose runs down to the engine. This has lasted nearly 1,000
miles!
1-0 for remote mounting the sender!

Cheers Mike,I have thought about the remote mounting,but dont now where to take the remote oil feed from?The old CVH block I had before had a 1/8bsp
hole tapped into the block,cant find anything on the XE.
