Oil fitting question! Urgent *****
basically started putting in a turbo in a D15, now the the pressure sensor in the back is a fucked up bsp fitting. i would like to finish this car in next couple of days
so will a NPT fittting work or will it kill the threads, and if i have to get the BSP tee with the npt port on the sided where can i get one asap, i would order from tuner toys but shipping takes too long, and i would get raped with expedited to canada.
i know noob question, save the flamming for later, i need help quick time thanks.
and ill post **** / ripper vids soon as the cars done.

Re: Oil fitting question! Urgent *****
if you're -------rigging, I've forced npt into the bspt before. The fitting are brass but pretty sure the threading into the block is steel isn't it? So you would ---- up the npt fitting before you f up the block. My 2 cents. But thats a temp fix, it will leak eventually. Get some teflon tape on the beyotch

You won't be able to find a bspt fitting anywhere locally, and I'm headed to phoenix in an hour to meet up with tuner tots for the nhra race.
What you're going to want to do is use the 1/8npt fitting, AFTER you run a 1/8 tap through the hole. If you tap it first, it will seal. Put a little teflon tape on it, and don't overtighten it and you should be fine.
