oil/fuel pressure senders

Deweyclawson · #1 03-16-2016, 07:07 PM

I am installing the GRT EFIS and eng monitor systems in my new (to me) RV6A.
Does anyone have a source for fittings to mount the oil press and fuel press senders to. They are the same senders I have seen on Dynon and MGL installations. The threads on the senders measure 27tpi.

Thanks

There's unfortunately no pic here, but I'm sure someone will post one...

The threads on my GRT sending units were 1/8" p.t. Does your RV6 have the sensor "manifold" that's now standard to RVs?

This is the standard Van's piece, set up to accept three senders, but I cut off the top one as I only need oil pressure and fuel pressure.

Thanks guys.
I had only one cylinder with egt/cht so no sensor mount. No sensors. Direct reading gauge with oil and fuel lines to the back of the inst. panel. Plane was built in '93. I just ordered the mount. that is exactly the thing.
