Oil temp and pressure sensor

I want some help for installing a Bosch Fluid Pressure and Temperature Sensor and I would like to know if I can install the sensor on the oem oil pressure sensor. The sensor has 2 output wires one for temp and one for pressure can i wire the the pressure wire on the oem wire and the temp sensor on my Link ECU an input?

Most likely that sensor isn't putting out the same signal as the OEM. You would have to get a spec sheet for that sensor and compare with the shop manual - the shop manual shows the resistance values of the OEM sensor.

Also you may need an adapter to screw that sensor in, I THINK the iron uses a BSPT not NPT hole. It's close, but I have heard stories of people trying to screw the wrong one in and cracking the rear iron.

Get a spare banjo bolt for the rear oil cooler line to oil filter pedestal and drill/tap the flat head of that bolt. Install the sensor there. Clean and out of the way.
