Eleven posts down on this thread there is some advice on how to search if "search" is down.


Not too sure what you do with the sticky out tongue thing ?


I bought a single connection one off Ebay some time ago and it works fine, maybe I was just lucky? Others seem to have had problems using the two connection ones.

This may be it but no guarantees !!!

My old S3C had one with part number TN0009 from TVR car parts. Think they have now stopped trading but someone said David Gerald took much of the S series old stock so may be worth giving him a ring (0)1527 525319

Hi Dave,
I got a two - terminal one off eBay & it works fine. You just have to run an earth wire to the chassis earth point nearby.
Easy job, & it cost less than £15 inc.p/p, delivered next day.

Supplier: Hose Fittings UK, Birmingham.

Item: Universal 1/8 NPT Male Oil Pressure Sender/Sensor.
0-7 bar, 0-100 psi, 33-240 ohms.

Their phone no. is 0121 647 6727

You will need 3 new ring terminal ends & crimping pliers, & a bit of elect cable.
Plus I sealed the connections with silicon after fitment.
HTH, Glen
