VVT engine - Oil temp sender + Oilcooler adapter with thermostat... How do I do this?
Hey guys,
in preparation of a slight engine performance update in my TrishaMxMillan-project - going Rotrex on that one (Trisha's Blog (MX-5 Resurrection) | How to resurrect a rotten MX-5) I just received a nice Mocal oilcooler with an adapter plate with integrated thermostat.
Now as I also want to monitor my oil temperatures - do you have an advice for me, where I could simply mount my temp sender (VDO gauge). On my turbo-car I have a sandwich plate for the sensors (stacked with the oilcooler adapter- but this car (1,6 B6 Euro-NB doesn't have the OEM oil-cooler like the 1.9 cars)
I don't want to stack three of the sandwich/oilcooler plates (and I am not sure this would be working)...
How did you do, how would you do it?
I really appreciate your help!
Thanks!

On my car (1.8 VVT) I run a sandwich plate for oil temp/pressure. I am not currently running an oil cooler, but I have test-fit an oil cooler adapter plate on top of the existing one, and I was still able to get the filter on and off.
