When I installed the dual sender I also bought the adapter kit from Bus Boys and it works well for me. I made a hole in the tin and attached the sender to the lower engine mount using the adapter kit hose. Works like a charm. Vibrates with the engine nicely and no leaks. I love seeing the actual idle and +2000 rpm oil pressure. Laurence Smith Hamilton, ON 90 Westy (fanumbos)
