frank2 WROTE: "sarge i heard they are 1/8" bsp too, personally, i would use the oil gallery plug on the front of the head (if you can get it out !) frank" yeh, no. been over this so many times.. its the last place to get oil in the whole engine, why you would want to starve your turbo from oil i dunno.. mitsubishi got its oil feed from the head on the first lot of 4g63 engines.. and had numerous turbocharger failures... the fix- get the oil supply from the oil pump, or in their case tee the oil pressure sensor as the sensor is located directly on the oil pump. |
