Taping Oil Pan.. do i have to remove it.
Hey i wanna hook this oil temp sensor to my oil pan. its like the size of the supercharger tap-in. I just dont want to Re-move the entire oil pan for this ordeal.
how longs it take to take it off? difficult?
Or should i just do this and leave it on-> http://www.superchargersonline.com/content.asp?ID=30

I wish i could help you out bro but ive never done it. I do know one thing from experience. The job is always easier when u take the longer road it seems. I would imagine the job would be much easier in the long run by actualy dropping the pan. Plus you can clean it all out when its apart.

Yeah im thinkin that too. That pans gotta have some oil globbed inside it and probably could use the cleaning. Ahhhhhh ya talked me into it. To the dealer for a gasket it is.........

I have an Autometer oil temp gauge and I put the sensor in the drain plug. I drilled through the center of the plug with a 3/8" drill, which was just a hair smaller than the sensor diameter. I heated up the plug with a torch and tapped the sensor in with a small hammer. There is enough interference to make a tight, leak-proof fit.
