Hello all. I bought an oil pressure gauge for my J model and broke the supplied brass fitting off when I was tightening it. It leaked like a sieve when I thought I had it "just tight enough", but it broke. Was able to get the remnants out OK. The "flat" on my oil bolt, with a rubber washer is about twice the size of the brass fitting that came with the oil gauge. Would like to have a stainless bolt as large as the normal plug (P/N 92066-021 which is 14X12) that I can tap into. Any suggestions? Thanks.

When you replace it don't be stingy with the Teflon tape.
