Hey all! I've been struggling for a few days with a technical issue installing an Oil Temp Gauge from AEM.
I recently ordered this guy:

And read thread after thread of locations and adapters needed to support these gauges. It seems like most people linked this adapter:
https://www.rallysportdirect.com/sho...il-galley-plug
Which apparently now does not exist. I also came up with more questions than answers looking up "sub11024aa210", which is a valid part number, but refers to a
M18x1.5 male to 1/8 BSPT female adapter for an EJ motor, and my sensor is 1/8" NPT. I therefore ordered one off of amazon just using the search term "1/8 BSPT to NPT adapter" and came up with this:
https://www.amazon.com/Dewhel-Female...dp/B00V5Q6GME/
However, the temperature probe on the AEM sensor is too thick to fit inside the center hole, and even if dremeled out, the tip of the probe is short and would not reach out the other end.
It cannot be this difficult, can it? I assume everyone who posted in those threads got their oil temp sensors/probes working, so my question is,
how? Is there another adapter I can use with a larger inner diameter and shorter length? I'm afraid dremeling this adapter out too far will weaken it to a point of failure.
Thanks in advance for any assist.
