GQ TD42 has the bung on left hand engine mount here that can be used.

My bung was seized so I put a T piece on the oil sender on the other side of block here.

It is the GU TD - I got a turbo oil feed kit and the adapter that goes in the block is too big so I need to find the right size so I can connect my turbo oil feed line to the block. Hopefully Pirtek will have it, just need the right size.

Cheers.

I don't know the size on the TD42T block mate, hopefully someone can sort you out.

If not yeah you could take the bung or plug out and give it to Pirtek, they would sort you out quick.

[Dam355]

Ok thanks for that.

Cheers.

Mate see if you can get the bung out first as they are know to strip out (happened to me). I just tee'd off the oil pressure sender and got my feed from there.

Yep I trashed mine trying to undo it. 20 years of hot and cold certainly ceases the bung!!!

x3 easier to tee off the oil pressure sender.

Just unscrewed it - used a allen key socket with a ratchet attached and unscrewed easy as. Lucky me.
Now off to Pirtek in the morning.

Cheers guys!!

Lucky bugger, thats great mate, ten times better to hook up oil feed there.

[Dam355]

Yeah. As long as my exhaust manifold studs are as easy as this to undo!!
I'll be happy.
