Anyone fitted one of these before?

It is a housing to fit a mechanical type oil temp sender unit. You can fit it into your oil cooler lines.

I have an oil temp guage with sender etc, but have not been able to decide on how to fit the sender unit. i was thinking along the lines of the sump plug fitting, but thats not ideal as you would disturb it every time you do an oil change.

question i had for anyone who has one, does it leak? there is a fair bit of oil pressure in the cooler line, what are the chances of it leaking or a hose popping off?
