He's as bad as Can
There is an adapter inbetween the H2O probe and T Block also. Check out my photos here https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...&page=11&pp=15
My oil pressure line is SS cause I didn't want to use the plastic one after having a problem with it. But the H20 & Oil temp is the same as yours .

It worked. You are my HERO. Why didn't RB mention the adapters in the instruction or make it impossible to screw the sensor into the adaptor body? After I get done cleaning up the gallon of antifreeze on the floor and get some lunch I'll attempt the oil side( I too, took your advice and have a SS line for my oil pressure. I'll post later tonight if all goes well, if not I may have gone crazy. Thanks again.

That's what I did but in the process I cut the O ring(of course I didn't know it till oil leaked all over the place). This has become the project from hell. Looks like I'll pull the plate off and get a new O ring(maybe 2 or 3) when RB opens on Tuesday. I'll put the filter back on without the plate. Thanks to everone for their help.

My install didn't go smooth the first time also, witness the SS oil presure line. A good hardware store should have O-rings you can use. Bring the plate in with you of course.
