Is this fixable?
well im having bad luck this week...installing my turbo kit and when i was taking out the oil pressure sensor to link it up with the T union which goes to the turbo..here's how it went..i was taking out the sensor with a ratchet wrench and socket...since there is no clearance for the wrench to fully unscrew it i would have to take it out by hand..so in the process of taking out the wrench the whole thing moved a little...now i didnt notice it so i continued to unscrew and it did come out..i looked on the threads on the oil pressure sensor and they were fine..but the threads in the engine block are F*cked..well not completely..i can still get the T union in and link up the oil line but thats only if i force it just a lil. what should i do ?

couldnt you just install a line from the block to the T. make a bigger hole in the block w/ tap and get a right connector to screw in there, than to the T,
Thats what i would do. If you put the T into the bad threads you risk the fact that down the road it might mess up. Oil is vital to engine and turbo so i wouldnt even think of risking it. |
