Thank you! That would be so much easier. The gauge came with lots of adapters so I will try this tomorrow.
Sorry, that was a bad picture from below. I believe is the sender: [ATTACH] But it sounds like there are easier ways to get the gauge reading....
Yes, identified with the dowel and with the belt off the noise is gone. Now just confirming the oil is working then plan to change for 10w30 and...
