FS: Thread adapter - mainly for gauges
When you hook up most pressure gauges you'll get a NPT (national pipe thread) sending unit that doesn't work in your BSPT (British Standard Pipe Thread) hole in your engine block.
Here's an adapter that is 1/8" male BSPT (to go into the block) to 1/8" female NPT (the sending unit threads into). Length in just under and inch.
Made by Parker Hannifin: part# 1/8F3HG-B
I have a bunch, but when they're gone they're gone.
Price: 10 bucks SHIPPED (to the lower 48)
Contact: dafedel@uwm.edu (also my paypal ID)
Location: Milwaukee, WI
Hook up some gauges to your foreign car.
Fitting, Metric Adapter, Oil Pressure
