The 90601 kit adapts 1\/8\" NPTF senders to \u003cstrong\u003e1\/4\" and 3\/8\" NPTF\u003c\/strong\u003e ports. Choose based on the thread size of your engine port, not the sender.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use thread tape instead of thread sealant?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCheck the sender manufacturer’s recommendation first. If the sender uses its metal body as a ground path, PTFE tape or insulating sealant on the threads can break the ground circuit and cause erratic or no gauge reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this kit compatible with NPT as well as NPTF?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNPTF (Dryseal) and NPT threads share the same pitch and taper and will engage. For pressure applications, Faria Beede specifies NPTF. Consult the sender installation instructions for the specific port type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this kit include a sender?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The 90602 contains adapter bushings only.

The most common issue is ordering the wrong kit: if the engine port is 1\/4\" or 3\/8\" NPTF, this kit will not fit and the customer needs the 90601 instead. A quick port thread check before ordering saves a return trip.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FVW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43563794628644,"sku":"90602","price":15.86,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/3f01bc0b-63a1-4561-af49-31d5411b1aaf.png?v=1788720068","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/faria-beede-sender-bushing-kit-90602","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
