greddy oil filter adapter

[hkssupratt1994]

i went to start my SR after swaping it and it started shooting oil out i saw the problem to be a hole where a screw should go in the part when you screw your oil filter on and greddy is ingraved in it i couldnt find a screw to fit it so i just put some RTV in the hole anyone ever heard of this?

[CoupedUp]

The screw is for the Oil pressure sensor. I wouldnt use RTV. If at all possible, remove it and go down to ACE hardware and put a bolt into it or get a gauge and thread into it.

Dont trust just RTV. Please. No Oil + Running SR = No Bueno.

I am your personal assistant.

where is this from? A oil cooler kit or something?

[karmakaze]

you need a 1/8th" NPT plug.

[hkssupratt1994]

is looks like is for an oild cooler kit of an oil pressure gauge

[hkssupratt1994]

so i found out this is what i have on it i need to install a oild gauge anyway does anyone know if an autometer oil pressure gauge would fit that hole for a greddy on the adapter

[doridori23]

Yes it will. They are not fancy looking but very reliable gauges

[hkssupratt1994]

i allready have an autometer boost gauge does anyone know were i can get my light from for my gauge i tryed to find a fuse that controls the dash lights but i cant find anything that only comes on when you turn on your headlights

[nwmrkt]

ok sorry so let me get this straight...what your talking about is, you have a greddy oil cooler kit, with relocation? And it already has a part to easily install a oil pressure sensor right?

Where did you buy it?Thanks

[hkssupratt1994]

no i found the part on FRsport.com is an adapter for an oil pressure gauge to have somewhere to be hooked up look it up on there my engine had one on it allready and i didnt find that out untill it started leaking

i know the thread is stupid old but i just did a swap on a friends car and the exact same thing happend haha but he has a oil pressure sensor in it and its still pooring oil out as soon as you start the car. and his motor has solid lifters this kid got a deal but im sure the motor was beat on. anyone know what to look for how many holes are there on the adapter? im thinking at least one is not pluged up.

[redsx13]

Just take the the thing off and head down to your local hardware store. from what i can remember, the hole is tapped to pipe thread, so you will need to go to the plumbing section because i dont think a normal screw will work. but i may be wrong, it has been a while.

lol, i cant believe they where talking about sealing the hole with rtv!

[blackmagic]

lmao that wouldnt wok for sure the oil pressure is just to great. not to mention thats just ghetto....but yeah thats what i was planning on doing as a last resort cause the engine is in the car now . i guess ill just pull the starter and the lower intake support so i can get to it. damn this greddy bs haha. thanks again

[blackmagic]

just to let everyone know...the oil pressure sensor wasnt my problem it was infact a bolt that blocks off where the oil cooler line goes was missing.
