    Anders,

    All sensors don't work with all meters. The sensor output must be compatible with the meter. If you just want to verify your present meter reading, the best way is as Roger suggested. Use a mechanical gauge. With enough tubing, you can temporarily mount the gauge in the cockpit and watch both gauges as you fly.

    The oil pressure sender thread is M10x1 on the newer engines and NOT 1/8' NPT.

    Make sure you stick to the same type of sender.

    If you try and fit the wrong one, you will damage the oil pump housing and you could get oil leaking or worse, if you strip the thread, you will need a new oil pump housing.

    Make sure you fit the right one.

    What is newer engine?

    Which serial numbers of 912ULS has M10x1 and which have 1/8" NPT?

    The new oil pressure sensor with metric threads is only on engines produced since the summer of 2012.
    see SI-912-020 R6 section 79-00-00.

    Is that correct?
    It says that the type part no 456180 replaces the old 956413.

    That means they have to have the same thread.

    Can someone clear this problem? Which have M10x1 and which have 1/8" NPT?
