Your picture gives me an idea. I have a bypass block on the old oil filter location, and it has a port on it that I use to provide oil to the PSRU. I think I'll try to find a "T" to put in the port, and stick the temp sensor in the other end of the "T". As I recall I have a 90 degree fitting on the now for the oil line. I though about drilling another hole in the bypass block, but I would have to remove the intake, which requires removing the turbo, just to get it off. I think that I'll look for a "T" with 1 male and 2 female pipe threads.

Todd,

Thanks. Your picture gives me an idea. I have = a bypass=20 block on the old oil filter location, and it has a port on it that I use = to=20 provide oil to the PSRU. I think I'll try to find a "T" to put in = the=20 port, and stick the temp sensor in the other end of the "T". As I = recall I=20 have a 90 degree fitting on the now for the oil = line.

I=20 though about drilling another hole in the bypass block, but I would have = to=20 remove the intake, which requires removing the turbo, just to get it = off. =20 I think that I'll look for a "T" with 1 male and 2 female pipe=20 threads.
